Vicar of the the United Benefice of Outwood, Stanley and Wrenthorpe and Priest-In-Charge of St Paul Alverthorpe in the Wakefield Vicar of the The United Benefice of Outwood, Stanley and Wrenthorpe and Priest-in-Charge of St Paul Alverthorpe in the Wakefield Episcopal Area in the Anglican Diocese of Leeds Outwood Stanley and Wrenthorpe in Wakefield are the Parishes in a new United Benefice. Soon the United Benefice will be joined by the Parish of St Paul Alverthorpe. There is a lot of enthusiasm for the United Benefice and people are looking forward to Alverthorpe being an important part of this great opportunity. With all the new housing being built especially near Stanley it affords a vital mission and strategic vision as we look to the future especially with young families. It’s an exciting development in this part of Wakefield. Working together with 2 Associate Priests and a Self Supporting Minister, a retired Priest, several Readers and a lot of capable and committed lay people we are looking forward to welcoming somebody to lead us forward into the next chapter of our mission and ministry here. Based in Stanley, we are praying for somebody who will: be a spiritual leader and help give the parishes and people a renewed vision of what it means to be the Body of Christ serving the local communities and to be intentionally mission focussed. enable the churches to grow, following the principles of Leading Your Church Into Growth LYCIG) and greedy for the churches to do well. bring the Parishes together and develop collaborative ways of working together and reaching out to the local communities. help realise and appreciate the value in relationships of being a United Benefice, helping the churches to develop together whilst keeping their own individual identities. be a good listener and communicator, understanding the needs of the varied communities and churchmanships and who can relate to a wide range of people have a heart for those on the edge of society and able to assist with the development and implementation of ministry and mission in a predominantly suburban area seize all opportunities to build on the work in reaching out to children, young people and families. These four parishes represent a fair cross section of the churchmanships in the Church of England and we are looking for somebody who can appreciate the richness and diversity of this mix. Because the person appointed, although leading and helping to mould a team working together across several parishes, will be based in Stanley, we are looking forward to somebody who will help the people of Stanley with the following: help put the local community at the heart of our thoughts. It is vital that everyone connected to us feels a part of something truly special… a place they can always be themselves, allowing their faith to help others flourish within this unique parish. enable an inclusive feel at every level, from those faces we see regularly to the people who dip in & out of our lives when they need support most. demonstrate new ways to understand Christ and how He remains the anchor that a modern community can relate to, now and for the rest of our lives. be at home with relaxed worship, where a welcoming and open congregation awaits. build on links into local schools & groups and encourage activities for young families throughout the United Benefice. Not only are we a new and growing United Benefice, we are a new and growing Diocese. The Anglican Diocese of Leeds comprises of five Episcopal Areas, each co-terminous with an Archdeaconry. This is now one of the largest Dioceses in the country and its creation is unprecedented in the history of the Church of England. It covers an area of around 2,425 square miles, and a population of around 2,642,400 people. The three former Dioceses were created in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to cater for massive population changes brought about by industrialisation and, later, mass immigration. The Diocese comprises major cities (Bradford, Leeds, Wakefield), large industrial and post-industrial towns (Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury), market towns (Harrogate, Skipton, Ripon, Richmond and Wetherby), and deeply rural areas (the Dales). The whole of life is here, along with all the richness, diversity and complexities of a changing world. The Diocesan Bishop is assisted by five Area Bishops (Bradford, Huddersfield, Kirkstall, Wakefield and Ripon) and five archdeacons (Bradford, Halifax, Leeds, Pontefract, Richmond & Craven). Our vision as the Diocese is about confident clergy equipping confident Christians to live and tell the good news of Jesus Christ. For all of our appointments we are seeking clergy who have a joyful and confident faith which has inspired a track record of church growth, both numerically and spiritually. Come and help us to make this vision a reality. .

  • Wrenthorpe Matters Nov 2020
    WRENTHORPE COMMUNITY ASSOC. WRENTHORPE MATTERS Issue No. 3/2020 November 2020 Welcome: to the Latest Edition of Wrenthorpe Matters. Produced by Wrenthorpe Community Association to help keep you up-to-date with village news; it would normally be delivered by our fantastic team of volunteers to every home in Wrenthorpe – over 3,500 copies – but due to these unprecedented times we are “delivering it to you online” where you will have the option to download and/or print. COVID 19 PANDEMIC Firstly we would like to offer our condolences to anyone who has lost a loved one to Covid 19, or any other illness, since March. We, the Wrenthorpe Community Assoc. were very saddened by the loss of a valued trustee, David Arthur, who sadly passed away from this awful disease in April at the age of 81. David was a member of the WCA for many years and his life experiences – an active member of the Unitarian Church, the Liberal Democrats, several choirs, and his work with many charities - enabled him to give us invaluable advice and help over the years. RIP David. VILLAGE HALL AND VALLEY CRESCENT CENTRE Once the local Food Bank moved out of the Village Hall at the end of August a special deep clean was done, and a small Working Party began the task of preparing both venues for safely re-opening. By mid-September both were ‘Covid-Secure’ for the return of our regular users. Due to local Covid alerts from mid-October, and, of course the second National Lockdown, very little progress has been made on resuming former activities but we are pleased that our premises are ready once Government guidance allows.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.
