Statement from the Bishop of Chichester on the Needs of the Diocese

The Diocesan Strategy has three main components: • Numerical and spiritual growth • Re-imagining ministry • Working for the Common Good

It is hoped that clergy will seek to work out in their ministry how best to fulfil this vision.

In particular we are looking for the following qualities in our clergy: 1. A deep and confident personal faith The new priest will have a presence which makes God real. Love of God, humility and a life of prayer will equip the new priest as a godly and courageous leader. Theologically literate and confident in scripture, the new priest will be a clear teacher of the faith. 2. A clear commitment to mission and growth The new priest will be committed to leading effective mission and to encouraging new growth. The new priest will work with and build upon existing initiatives as well as offering fresh insights. 3. An ability to lead and manage change creatively The new priest will be a creative leader who will seek to inspire and enable and to work collaboratively. The new priest will have the breadth of vision to engage with those beyond the ‘walls of the church’. 4. A confident and competent communicator The new priest will be comfortable engaging with a wide cross section of people and able to communicate with those of faith as well as those of none. 5. A gifted pastor A person of wisdom and integrity, the new priest will be able to get alongside others. The new priest will be able to recognise and utilise the talent and abilities of others, supporting and encouraging vocations to all forms of ministry and service.

July 2019

Introduction

Our Benefice comprises: two active churches in the ‘Low Church’ tradition; St Stephen’s and St Leodegar’s, and a third, St Giles, Merston, which is now under the responsibility of the ‘Churches Conservation Trust’. St Stephen’s and St Leodegar’s are situated in the semi-rural villages of North Mundham and Hunston which are located two miles south of Chichester. Each village has a population of around 1,200 and the 2011 census figures show increases in the population and estimates predict further rises, with new housing development contributing to this. The local Primary school is situated in North Mundham, and Chichester Free School, which takes pupils through to sixth form, is situated just outside Hunston parish. Both villages have one or two local shops and a Public House.

Our team comprises: an SSM, Revd. Stephen Everard, a Licensed Lay Reader Katrina Walker, a self-employed ‘Youth Mission Worker’, Alistair Ghinn, and we benefit from the services of a retired vicar, Revd. Victor Malan, and an organist Fran Jones. The two churches, St Stephen’s and St Leodegar’s, are each served by two Churchwardens. Each church has its own PCC and the two PCCs meet jointly on alternate months (six times a year), the three winter meetings at North Mundham and the three summer meetings at Hunston.

St Stephen’s church lies in the centre of the village of North Mundham and dates from the 11th century, although little of the original church remains. It can comfortably seat up to 180 people, has 143 on the Electoral role, and has an average Sunday attendance of around 60. In 2016 St Stephen’s adopted the strapline ‘Bringing Hope’.

St Leodegar’s church is situated on the edge of the village and though the site has been a centre of worship for centuries the current church was built in 1885. It can comfortably seat up to 100 people, has 64 on the Electoral role, and has an average Sunday attendance of around 25. In 2016 St Leodegar’s adopted the strapline ‘Offering Friendship & Welcome’.

We would describe our Holy Communion services as being central (not too high or low - leaning towards Evangelical). Both parishes are served by a Sunday school at St Stephen’s and Alistair Ghinn, with support, leads our children’s and youth groups serving the whole Benefice. The churches and the local community enjoy the occasional performances of our ‘Puppets 4 Praise’!

Shared – Vision, Purpose, Values, Mission

We trust that this profile will give you a sense of who we are as you seek God’s will for your future and ours.

Our vision ● Bringing Hope (St Stephen’s) ● Offering Friendship and welcome (St Leodegar’s)

Our guiding purpose has been to live and grow in Christ. We try to do this through proclaiming the Good News, nurturing disciples, working in partnership with our communities and being good stewards of our inheritance.

We believe that by working together, respecting our differences and learning from each other, not only can we discover common ground, we can add up to more than the sum total of our separate parts.

Our Purpose (Why we are here) ● We are a church that is committed to bowing down before God in vibrant worship. ○ Open to fresh expressions of worship in a way that is relevant, appealing, inclusive, diverse & challenging to modern life. ○ A church that has God at its centre, spreading love to others, rooted in prayer and to the word of God, led by the Holy Spirit.

● Bringing people into his family ○ To welcome, baptise and nurture new believers ○ Our prayer is that everyone who enters our church will find a warm welcome, sense God’s presence, and experience something of his great love.

● Building people up in Christ-like maturity so we are equipped for Christian worship ○ Each person can be encouraged to discover and use their God-given gifts to serve in Christ’s name.

● Branching out with the Good News of Jesus Christ in our local community ○ A church that works alongside other churches and Christian organisations who share these values eg Stonepillow; HEART and Chichester Homeless Project

Our values (How we are to be) ● Thankfulness and praise are at the heart of our worship (Colossians 3:15-17) ● Loving relationships lie at the heart of Christ’s church (Ephesians 4:2-3) ● God’s word reveals God’s heart and transforms ours (Hebrews 4:12) ● Faithful prayer links our hearts with the heartbeat of God (Philemon 4:6-7) ● A servant heart is the basis of our discipleship (Galatians 5:13-14) ● Caring for others expresses Christ’s love (2 Corinthians 1: 3-4)

Our mission (What we are here to do) ● To reach our church family ○ Stones & Pebbles ○ Lighthouse Children & Youth work ○ Solid Rock ○ Puppets 4 Praise 5

● To reach our community ○ A church that provides support, pastoral care and responds to those in need in our church and the wider community ○ Village lunch clubs ○ Cornerstone (social club) ○ Little Sunbeams (toddler group) ○ Regular chiropody sessions ○ Connect magazine ○ Fundraising ○ ‘Remembering Loved Ones’ Service ○ Pet service ○ External mission support – Emmanuel International, link to Ibumu in Tanzania, BEATS, HEART and Stonepillow

● To bring in our ‘crowd’ ○ We are a church that loves those who have yet to come to know Christ and actively reaches out to the local community and to the world. ○ We value worship, tradition, community, friendship, fellowship, the word and sacraments. We emphasize liberality, inclusivity and diversity.

● To build up our congregation ○ We are a worshipping and caring community of people from a mixture of backgrounds occupations and ages. ○ We provide an open welcome and safe sanctuary to encounter God.

● To develop our core ○ To develop appropriate ways to show forth God’s reconciling love for the world through the commitment to Christ and to one another ○ Encourage and enable each member to participate actively in the mission of the Church to bring the Gospels to all

Our Team

Revd. Stephen Everard: Stephen joined the team in 2016. Here is how he summarises his role in the team:

I am married to Jane, a special needs coordinator in a Primary School who is also training to be a counsellor. We have a daughter, Naomi, who is about to start a Childhood Studies course at Bristol University.

My role within the church during my curacy has mostly been on Sundays, leading services and preaching, although I have led a small group looking at “Emotionally Healthy Spirituality” and also been involved in the “Hope in Action” outreach project to the local community.

My wife and I are currently seeking God’s will for our futures, but have committed ourselves to remain in the Benefice for a year of the Interregnum.”

Katrina Walker: Katrina joined the team in April 2017 during her Reader training and was Licensed in September 2017.

St Stephen’s Church, North Mundham

St Stephen’s church lies in the centre of the village of North Mundham with a population of around 1,200 located two miles south of Chichester and dates from the 11th century, although little of the original church remains.

The arches are 13th century, the tower is early 16th century, but much of the structure of the building was refurbished in Victorian times as part of the extensive restoration programme carried out in 1883. At this time the chancel, vestry, organ chamber were added and a highly decorative iron Rood Screen with gates, was installed across the Chancel steps to separate the Choir and the 13th century walls, windows and porch were rebuilt.

The organ, built by Messrs Wordsworth & Maskell of Leeds was installed in 1884, an electric blower was fitted in 1936 and it cleaned and rebuilt in 2002 by F H Browne and Sons.

The clock was installed on the tower in 1889.

In 1978 the font was re-sited and a Church Meeting Area, including a robing space for the Choir, was created, known as the St Stephen’s Room. This provides a useful additional seating space, Sunday school teaching and general meeting area, with a kitchen and adjacent toilet.

At the back of the balcony are double doors leading to a small room known as the Hilton Room, used for the older Sunday school group and from where the bells are rung. St Stephen’s has five bells known as the Ellacombe Chimes.

In 2014 a major upgrade to our sound system was carried out, including new speakers and amplifiers etc. with a mixing desk capable of handling 16 audio inputs controlled via an iPad.

10

St Stephen’s can comfortably accommodate up to 180 people, as of March 2019 we have 135 people on the Electoral role, of which 48% are from outside the parish. In 2016 St Stephen’s adopted the strapline ‘Bringing Hope’ and developed the programmes of: • ‘Hope in Action’ – a weekend dedicated to reaching out to those who don’t currently attend church, when we carry out odd jobs around the village • ‘Cornerstone’ – Monday afternoon activities for the local community, eg films, book club, knit and natter and Wednesday morning refreshments when all are welcome, including local ramblers • North Mundham Primary School – assemblies and church services • Fabric – work parties to maintain the building and grounds as a focus of life in the village

Our Church Services All of our regular Sunday morning services commence at 9:30am, following discussions with parents a few years ago as to the best time for families to attend services.

Our monthly service program is currently: • 1st and 3rd Sunday mornings – Holy Communion, with Sunday school - a more formal service where the Rector currently wears a surplice and stole, along with a robed choir who are led by the organist. • 1st Sunday evening – ‘Beacon’ service starts at 6:30pm, this is a very informal worship led by musicians, with a talk from either the Rector, youth leader or visiting speaker, with a break for refreshments, projector used to display song/hymn lyrics and any other visuals. • 2nd Sunday – All age worship, this is an informal service, with music provided by our Music group (Heart and Soul), projector used to display song/hymn lyrics and any other visuals. • 4th Sunday – Morning Praise, this is an informal Reflective style service, making use of media such as YouTube, currently led by our Lay Reader, with music provided by the organist. • 5th Sunday – During the interregnum we have decided to come together as one Benefice to share Holy Communion together, alternating the service in each church.

Refreshments are served in St Stephen’s room after all of our Sunday Morning Services.

The Easter Cross is decorated by the church family during our Easter day service.

St Leodegar’s, Hunston

St Leodegar’s church is situated at the end of Church Lane, on the edge of the village of Hunston, some two miles from Chichester with a population of around 1,200. It stands in front of Hunston Manor and pond, with renovated farm dwellings adjacent. The church was rebuilt in 1885 from a much earlier church site in the medieval style, has an attractive lychgate, and quite a large churchyard incorporating a ‘Garden of Remembrance’ for the burial of ashes. Within the churchyard is the ‘Cabin’ an old classroom, which is cosy if not salubrious, useful for church meetings, community groups, and is utilised by the youth groups except in the winter.

Our Church Services In 2016 St Leodegar’s adopted the strapline ‘Offering Friendship & Welcome’ and our Sunday morning services commence at 11.00am. The church has a small electric organ, simple sound system and portable screen. Our regular organist provides musical support for three services a month, which is occasionally augmented by the ‘St Leodegar’s Singers’. The services are a mixture of Common Worship Holy Communion and more informal ‘all age’ worship, see pattern below, and our small fellowship enjoys tea and coffee after services either in the church or the ‘Cabin’.

Our monthly service programme is currently: • 1st Sunday – Morning Praise • 2nd and 4th Sunday mornings – Common Worship Holy Communion, where the Rector usually wears a surplice and stole. • 3rd Sunday – All age worship, a more informal service, with a projector used to display song/hymn lyrics and any other visuals. • 5th Sunday – During the interregnum we have decided to come together as one Benefice to share Holy Communion together, alternating the service in each church.

We would like to: increase the church family, develop our singing group, re-form our Sunday school (in conjuction with new housing development), outreach to our community particularly the Free School, participate in the village fete (a moderate income generator each year) and other community and social activities including Christmas Carols in the local pub. Hunston benefits from a nearby golf course, a large playing field, children’s playground, a well equipped village community hall and is served by a regular bus route every 15 minutes to Chichester, which is also within reasonable walking distance along the attractive canal.

St Giles, Merston

This church is now under the responsibility of the ‘Churches Conservation Trust’ and St Stephen’s PCC has the responsibility of maintaining the Graveyard and the School room. The School room is currently rented out to a local artist couple who live in Merston and use it as a studio.

This grade I listed medieval church is situated in a rural hamlet just to the east of Chichester and dates from the 13th Century. The chancel and nave are of this period, the north aisle and the porch were added in the 14th and 17th Century respectively. The altar table is oak with four turned legs dating from 17th Century. The font with its square basin is of 12th Century style. The bell cote is modern and of stone. The single bell is dated 1809. An early nineteenth century schoolhouse is located next to the church.

Services ceased in 2010 because urgent repairs to the roof were needed, its PCC amalgamated with St Stephen’s and some time after this the ‘Churches Conservation Trust’ took responsibility for St Giles and carried out the repair work.

Wider Community, Broader Context On the edge of an area of outstanding natural beauty, the semi-rural villages of Hunston and North Mundham are located 2 miles south of Chichester in the Sussex coastal plain which is mostly comprised of agricultural land and horticultural industries. A number of residents have lived in the parishes for many years often with different family generations living close to one another. The 2011 census figures show an increase in population and estimates predict a further rise, with new housing development contributing to this. The population as a whole is older than the national and West Sussex average. Unemployment is lower than average with higher than average income.

Finance

View from St Stephen’s tower looking towards Hunston

The ethos of two parishes forming a joint Benefice is carried forward within the approach to financial management. Each PCC has an elected treasurer, and two separate sets of accounts are maintained and presented annually at the joint APCM and via the Parish Returns Online system. Whilst handling their separate duties, the two treasurers work cooperatively, particularly in the area of shared costs such as the payment of the Parish Share, incumbent’s expenses and the printing of the joint parish monthly magazine.
