We are offering this to anyone in the town who feels they would wish to find out more about what Christians believe. "Explorers" is aimed primarily at those who are currently not members of a church; though it might also be suitable for those who have only recently started attending church. We hope you will understand that it is not primarily aimed at those who are already committed Christians.

Introduction to the Profile by the Bishop of Sherborne In Dorset we have been working hard to make rural ministry both a joy and a delight. In recent years significant changes have been made in the way clergy are supported and encouraged, leading to a greater sense of collegiality in our rural and our urban areas. The Dorchester Deanery, in which the Benefice is situated, seeks to be a supportive place bringing together the rural clergy with those in the County Town. There will be a warm welcome amongst this clergy grouping for whoever comes to this Benefice. The parishes here enjoy beautiful rural countryside yet are within easy reach of Dorchester. Whilst some of these parishes remain as they have been for hundreds of years, and contain some exquisite churches, Crossways, in particular, is an expanding village aimed at attracting a mixed population, including a large number of families, and the newly built church here, adjacent to the school, creates a significant opportunity for the church to open its doors to minister to all those who live in that community.

  • Joint Local Plan Review for West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland
    Joint Local Plan Review for West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland INITIAL ISSUES AND OPTIONS CONSULTATION FEBRUARY 2017 West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland Local Plan Review Foreword We are delighted to introduce the review of the West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland joint Local Plan. Although it is only a short time ago since the examination and adoption of the joint Local Plan, the inspector who examined the plan said that the councils should prepare an early review. This review needs to identify additional land capable of meeting housing needs to the end of the current plan period (2031) as well as the broad locations for development in the five year period thereafter (to 2036). The inspector pointed towards Dorchester and Sherborne as locations for future growth, but we have also considered a range of options in our coastal and market towns. Government planning policy has changed on a number of issues including the introduction of ‘starter homes’ and ‘self build and custom housebuilding’ aimed to fulfil the Government’s priority to build more homes. We are therefore addressing these issues too. This first consultation document presents the issues relevant to the plan area today and seeks your thoughts on the different options that we can take. It is important to remember that these are ‘options’ which will be refined at a later stage - there is no commitment to any one solution at this point. The review of the adopted local plan is just starting and we are keen to seek as many different views as possible before we go any further. Your views are really important to us and the feedback we receive will guide decisions as the plan progresses towards examination and adoption.

Church of England Structure Parish The Church of England is the established church of this country. It is divided geographically into 42 dioceses, each made up of parishes. Bridport is one of 442 parishes in the Diocese of Salisbury. Historically appointment of a clergyman to a parish was often the Lord of the Manor’s patronage (or responsibility) but other institutions may have recommended someone. This pattern continues, regulated by Patronage (Benefices) Rules 1987. The patron can be an individual (or jointly or by rotation), the Crown, a bishop, a college, a charity or other religious body. After selecting a candidate, the patron asks the Bishop to license, collate or institute them. Appointment as a parish priest gives the incumbent the privilege of a benefice or living. Benefice A benefice is a single parish or group of parishes, normally under the care of a single incumbent, although a number of other arrangements are possible. We currently have 136 benefices in the Diocese of Salisbury, although this can change when benefices join together to form a team.
