  • Cathedral News
    Cathedral News August 2019 – No. 688 From: The Dean We’ve recently gone through the process of Peer Review. After the Chapter had completed a lengthy self-evaluation questionnaire on matters of governance and finance and so on, three reviewers came from other cathedrals to mark our homework. Or rather, to bring an external perspective to bear, and help us refine our thinking about where we are heading as a cathedral. In spite of our natural wariness in advance, only to be expected given the amount of external scrutiny the cathedral has undergone in recent years, it was an encouraging experience. More of that, however, in a future Cathedral News. For now, I want to pick up on a comment made by all three reviewers. They came to us from Liverpool, Winchester, and Ely, and all expressed delight, and surprise, at the splendour of our cathedral: “We had no idea what a marvellous building it is!” For me, their observations provoked two questions... Is it because we all take the building for granted? Or is it because we’ve failed to tell our story effectively? I suspect there is truth behind both these questions. We all know how ‘distance lends enchantment to the view’; and the converse is also clearly true. It is not that familiarity necessarily breeds contempt, but you cannot live in a perpetual state of wonderment. Sir Simon Jenkins, the author of all those books on beautiful houses and railway stations and churches and cathedrals, told of his visit to Exeter: “I came into the cathedral and sat in silence for half an hour, overwhelmed by the beauty of the place.” I have the benefit of being in the cathedral every day, and will often speak of how our vaulted ceiling lifts my heart daily to heaven.

  • Canon Precentor Information Pack
    w Canon Precentor Information Pack A message from the Bishop and Dean Thank you for your interest in the post of Canon Precentor. This is a time of great opportunity for Wakefield Cathedral. As we begin to emerge from a tumultuous period in the life of our nation and the Church, we are being challenged to think afresh about the future shape of our ministry and mission. This thinking is informed by Chapter’s Strategic Vision, Firm in Hope, which was launched last Advent, and by the Leeds Diocesan Strategy, Maturing in Christ,which articulates a vision of Confident Christians, Growing Churches, and Transformed Communities. As one of the three cathedrals of the Diocese of Leeds, Wakefield Cathedral is ideally placed to support the Bishop in working towards this vision: our building, situated at the heart of the city, has been magnificently refurbished and offers enormous scope for a colleague who has an imaginative, creative and thoughtful approach to liturgy and worship and the way in which it can serve and enrich both our mission, and the mission of the Diocese of Leeds. We hope that you will consider prayerfully the possibility that God may be calling you to serve in this exciting role. May God bless you as you do so. +Nick Baines Simon Cowling Bishop of Leeds Dean of Wakefield If you would like an informal conversation with the Dean about this role, by telephone or Zoom, please arrange an appointment by contacting Bev Howes, Dean’s PA, in the cathedral office on 01924 373923 or [email protected] Please email your completed application form to: Neil Holland, Chief Operating Officer, Cathedral Centre, 8-10 Westmorland Street, Wakefield WF1 1PJ E: [email protected] T: 01924 373923 The closing date for applications is 12:00 on Friday 01 October 2021.

  • 2017-October-Cathedral-News-1.Pdf
    Cathedral News October 2017 – No. 667 From the Acting Dean On the 31 October 1517, Martin Luther published his 95 theses in the German town of Wittenberg. His action is regarded as the start of the Reformation period across Europe. During the early part of the 15th century, many in the Catholic Church began criticising its activities. Luther was a leader of that movement, insisting that every Christian had a direct relationship with God. There was no need of the large superstructure of the Catholic Church to administer the grace of God; it was wrong to think that salvation was achieved through good works or the buying of ‘indulgences’. Salvation was God’s to give freely to those who accepted, and put their faith, in Jesus Christ. An understanding of God comes directly from the Bible, not the institutional church, so the Bible should be accessible to everyone by translating it into their native language. The ripple effect of the changes started by this debate, initiated by Luther continues to this day. The Reformation removed much of the role of the church as an autonomous and secular power. Many areas of welfare provision were taken over by the secular state. The Bible in England was translated from Latin, and the Prayer Book created. There was considerable resistance to the requirement to use English in worship. In the West Country, some Cornish and Devonians rose up in protest. They were brutally repressed. Luther’s theses, written in Latin, were quickly translated into German. Then, thanks to the invention of the printing press, they were widely distributed, and a social movement for radical change based on the Bible began, which has lasted in different forms ever since.

  • The Bishop of Leeds Wishes to Appoint a Priest-In-Charge (House for Duty) to St Chad Toller Lane, Bradford
    The Bishop of Leeds wishes to appoint a Priest-in-Charge (House for Duty) to St Chad Toller Lane, Bradford St Chad’s Church, Toller Lane Version 0.6 01.09.18 St Chad’s Toller Lane, Bradford Bishop’s Statement I am committed to ensuring that we retain a strong and viable presence of the accessible Catholic tradition within the Anglican church in the Bradford Episcopal Area and the Diocese of Leeds. St Chad’s Bradford is one of two significant parishes from within that tradition in the city of Bradford. St Chad’s is a church with a strong traditional Anglo-Catholic heritage. It has an eclectic congregation and is set in an inner city parish with a predominantly Asian Muslim population. The church building and its adjacent modern church hall are both in good condition. St Chad’s enjoyed the ministry of its previous vicar for some 47 years until his retirement last year and now therefore needs to face the challenges associated with a new sea- son. There will also be a particular additional role here to help St Chad’s positively engage with the developing Anglican structures in that part of Bradford - the neighbouring parishes of St Philip’s Girlington, St Paul’s Man- ningham, St Barnabas Heaton and St Martin Heaton have recently come together as a single parish to support each other more effectively. I am convinced that the future lies in churches working together more than ever before. As we look at the par- ishes across the city of Bradford and plan for a shared future within the new Diocese, I want St Chad’s to play a full part in those conversations.
