WATCH submission APPENDIX 1 APPENDIX 2 Sir Philip Mawer Independent Reviewer Church House Great Smith Street London SW1P 3AZ 13th February 2017 Dear Sir Philip, I am writing on behalf of the National Committee of WATCH to raise concerns about the working of the House of Bishops’ Declaration in relation to the appointment of the new Bishop of Sheffield. The House of Bishops’ Declaration agreed on 19th May 2014 states: 12. In addition, dioceses are entitled to express a view, in the statement of needs prepared during a vacancy in see, as to whether the diocesan bishop should be someone who will or will not ordain women. We have concerns that the people of Sheffield diocese were not made aware that they could make a statement requesting an ordaining bishop. We believe that many people naturally assumed that because this had been an “ordaining diocese” for over 20 years it would continue to be so. The Sheffield Statement of Needs clearly requests that the new Bishop be a focus of unity and the inclusion of a statement referencing the substantial number of women clergy reinforces that continuing need. We believe that the appointment of a non-ordaining bishop radically alters the relationship that the women clergy have with their Diocesan bishop and it radically alters the sense that the laity have of how the ministry of their incumbent is viewed by the Bishop. This has come as a shock to many in the diocese who are now left wondering how this situation could have arisen. May we ask you to review whether the appointment secretaries made clear the guidance in s.12 of the House of Bishops’ Declaration, both to the Vacancy in See Committee, and to the laity and clergy of the Diocese during the various consultations that took place? Thank you for your help in this matter. Rev Canon Dr Emma Percy Chair of WATCH Trinity College, Oxford OX1 3BH APPENDIX 3 THE INDEPENDENT REVIEWER’S REPORT: THE PROCESS On 23 March 2017 the Archbishops wrote to the Independent Reviewer, Sir Philip Mawer, asking him to address concerns raised by the operation of the House of Bishops’ Declaration under Regulation 27. Sir Philip accepted this request the following day. Between 28 & 30 March Sir Philip wrote to a number of interested parties seeking their comments on the matters raised by the Archbishops, by 30 April. In a number of cases these were followed up with one-to-one interviews. In addition to this correspondence Sir Philip studied a range of material that was publicly available from newspaper cuttings, blogs etc. On 3-5 May Sir Philip – accompanied by Jonathan Neil-Smith – met a cross section of people in the Diocese of Sheffield. 27 meetings took place attended by 62 people. In the period leading up to 5 July Sir Philip conducted a number of one-to-one interviews with others who had played a prominent part in the events (including 5 central members of the Crown Nominations Commission). By mid-July Sir Philip had received oral and written representations from 106 people.

The House believes that the outworking of these principles needs to be accompanied by simplicity, reciprocity and mutuality. 7. The simplicity of the legislation now agreed by the General Synod is reflected in the fact that it makes no changes to the structures of the Church of England, leaves unaltered the position of each diocesan bishop as Ordinary and preserves the historic requirement for canonical obedience to the diocesan bishop ‘in all things lawful and honest’ and for the taking of oaths acknowledging this 2 duty .

  • See of Dorchester Papers
    From the Bishop of Oxford As a Diocese, we are prayerfully seeking the person whom God is calling to be the next Bishop of Dorchester, one of three Area bishops in the Diocese of Oxford. At the heart of our vision we discern a call to become a more Christ-like Church for the sake of God’s world: contemplative, compassionate and courageous. Most of all we are seeking a new Bishop for Dorchester who will seek to model those qualities and inspire the Church of England across the Dorchester Area to live them out in our daily lives. Our new Bishop will therefore be a person of prayer, immersed in the Scriptures and the Christian tradition, able to be at home with and to love the clergy, parishes and benefices in many different church traditions and many different social contexts. We are seeking a person able to watch over themselves in a demanding role and to model healthy and life-giving patterns of ministry. We want our new bishop to be an inspiring leader of worship, preacher and teacher in a range of different contexts and to be a pastor to the ministers of the Area. The Bishop of Dorchester leads a strong and able Area Team in taking forward the common vision of the Diocese of Oxford in the Dorchester Area. Full details of that process can be found in these pages and on our diocesan website. We are therefore seeking a Bishop who can demonstrate commitment and experience to our diocesan priorities. The Bishop of Dorchester holds a significant place in the civic life of the area: we are therefore seeking a bishop who is able to make a confident contribution to wider society beyond the life of the church in civil, ecumenical and interfaith engagement and who is able to live and articulate the Christian gospel in the public square.

    anglican focus 26 August 2020 Reflections • Wednesday 19 August 2020 • By Bishop John Roundhill Three degrees of separation ‘Six degrees of separation’ is the notion that all people are a maximum of six social connections away from each other. In the Church, it is more like three. It is a big world, but within the life of faith, unexpected connections are constantly being found. One of the Church of England’s many theological “In my Ann St, Brisbane office I have a photo taken during my colleges is on the outskirts of Oxford. Oxford itself curacy of a church full of people, young and old. I cannot sports three Anglican theological colleges which remember the particular occasion, but it is a powerful itself is noteworthy – it once had even more! The reminder of my roots, for curacies are also formative" (Bishop one that is on the outskirts of Oxford is in a small John Roundhill) leafy village called Cuddesdon. The college’s name is Ripon College Cuddesdon. The Rev’d Max Lambourne from St Alban’s Church in Wilston, Brisbane, trained there, as too did this cleric. Theological colleges are formative places. The older I get the more I realise what a gift the lectures were, and what a privilege it was to study, worship and live as part of a college community. I was at Cuddesdon for three years and then propelled into a curacy. Many of my fellow ordinands stayed in the south of England. I headed back north to The Diocese of Blackburn in Lancashire, where I spent four years as a curate in a suburban parish in Lancaster.
