Wider Church Hearing 1 - 12 July 2019 CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY OPENING NOTE FOR FIONA SCOLDING QC ANGLICAN INVESTIGATION- WIDER CHURCH HEARING 1 - 12 JULY 2019 1.

(h)Counsel for the Department of Education, Ms Emily Wilsdon (1-9 July 2019). We understand that Mr Benjamin Seifert will attend for the DFE for some of next week also (10-11 July 2019). 3. There are no preliminary matters which the core participants wish to raise. Introductory remarks 4. The aim of these hearings is to examine whether the Church of England is currently giving sufficient priority to ensuring that churches are places are entirely safe and the voices of those who have difficult things to say are heard and acted upon. 5. The Inquiry has already heard a significant amount of evidence and received written statements and documentation about the Church of England during the course of both the Chichester and Peter Ball case study hearings, which will be used during this hearing where relevant and informative. We seek in this hearing to build upon that which we have already learnt. To remind everyone, when I talk about the Church in these opening remarks, I mean the Church of England, or the Church in Wales, and sometimes both Churches. 2 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY 6. I will spend the first part of this opening dealing with issues which predominantly relate to the Church of England. I will then provide an explanation and some background about the Church in Wales and the issues they have faced in respect of child sexual abuse. 7. The themes we will be examining during this hearing are: a. The views of victims and survivors as to the failures of the Church currently and what steps they consider should be taken to improve safeguarding practice. b. An examination of the appropriateness of reparations made by the Church, and the role of insurers in civil claims. c. The Current safeguarding practices and policies of the Church of England and the Church in Wales, and steps to be taken in the near future. d. Whether the current structure for safeguarding in both Churches are adequate to keep children safe. e. The handling of non recent allegations of abuse, and of posthumous allegations. 3 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY f. The current system for auditing and providing external scrutiny and whether it is capable of highlighting deficiciences in policies or practices. g. Safeguarding in practice. 8. Behind all these specific areas of inquiry lies the largest question - which is whether the culture of the Church as it was and is, is capable of dealing appropriately with safeguarding. Culture, as the Bishop of Blackburn’s letter of 17 June 2019 to his clergy says, is made up of structures, decisions and appointments. Part of this hearing will be spent examining casework recently carried out in dioceses across England and Wales to see if the culture has changed to one where the protection of children, rather than the reputation of the Church and those within it, is paramount. 9. Most of you in this room are familiar with the language and terminology associated with both the Church of England and Church in Wales. For the benefit of those not familiar with it, when I mention the word clergy, I mean someone who is a vicar, priest, rector or curate – i.e. someone who the church has granted “holy orders”. They are usually office holders – i.e. neither employed nor self employed. By Bishop I mean someone who has been appointed by the Church to be the chief pastor in a Diocese- the “cure of souls” to use the language of the Church. When we refer to a clerical title, or term of art during 4 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY this hearing, I will seek to explain it in ordinary language, or ask the witness to do so. Complainants, victims and survivors 10. As at previous hearings, we refer to those where abuse has been proven, either by way of criminal conviction, civil findings or findings in the context of disciplinary proceedings as victims or survivors. In circumstances where there have been no such findings, individuals are referred to as complainants. 11. We will spend part of these hearings listening to the voices of complainants, victims and survivors. We thank all of those who have contributed to this investigation and pay tribute to their courage in providing us with their accounts, recognising the emotional distress that this hearing may cause to them. We also recognise there will be others who may not have told anyone about their abuse, or wish to keep such private. As I have said before, the scars of sexual abuse in childhood are often indelible. 12. We will hear about abuse alleged to have been perpetrated by senior members of the clergy, including Bishops. We will hear of the reluctance or failure to report known abuse: we will hear of a lack of curiosity about or outright indifference to allegations when disclosed, and the grant of permission to officiate in cases where abuse was known to have occurred. We will also hear more about failures in record keeping – something 5 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY which seems trivial until one realises how far it can hamper an effective response to safeguarding as vital information is missing or placed out of reach. 13. We will hear about the abuse of power: about clergy who considered themselves to be able to operate by different rules: about the sense of entitlement that can come with a clerical collar and how that has made others unduly deferential or unwilling to criticise figures of authority in their lives. Data about the Church of England 14. The Church of England has provided us with information about all known cases of convictions for sexual offending involving children in the recent past. We have a list of 390 individuals who are either clergy, or in positions of trust in respect of the Church of England – for example, choirmasters, and where the acts of abuse were carried out in circumstances where those individuals were ostensibly performing their Church of England role. This includes individuals who offended in a domestic or educational setting. A significant amount of this offending involves the downloading of, or possession of, indecent images of children. 15. We also have a list of claims brought against dioceses in the Church of England in the recent past, which amount to some 330 in total, although it should be noted that some of the claims 6 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY involve the same offender. The vast majority of these claims relate to sexual offending carried out before 1990, with significant numbers in the 1960’s and 1970’s. 16. The Church of England has provided us with some statistics about the number of safeguarding concerns which were reported to dioceses from 2015 onwards about children or vulnerable adults. In 2015, some 1,052 concerns were reported. In 2017, this had increased to 1,257. 53% of the total number of safeguarding reports in 2017 related to sexual abuse. The proportion of those concerns which were then referred to statutory authorities has remained at around a third throughout this period. 17. Of the allegations set out above, 736 allegations were made about church officers in 2017 – so around a quarter of the total allegations made about children and vulnerable adults. Of those allegations around 43% were about clergy. The majority of allegations made against clergy concerned sexual abuse – some 62% in 2017. 21% of all allegations concerned those in voluntary positions. Around half of all cases referred to dioceses both about children and vulnerable adults involving clerics were reported to statutory agencies. 18. Disciplinary measures were taken in 72 cases in 2017 – with 39 cases being brought under the Clergy Discipline Measure and 33 under lay disciplinary procedures. 36 individuals were 7 Footnotes for internal reference only CONFIDENTIAL- CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY referred to the Disclosure and Barring Service in 2017, to determine whether they need to be placed upon the list they maintain for those unsuitable to work with children or vulnerable adults. Responding to abuse 19. The culture and clericalism of the Church of England in the past, as we have seen in the case studies involving both the Diocese of Chichester and the late Peter Ball, may have lent themselves to being places where those who wished to abuse children could hide, often in plain sight.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600
    Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 By Leon Chisholm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Massimo Mazzotti Summer 2015 Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 Copyright 2015 by Leon Chisholm Abstract Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 by Leon Chisholm Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Keyboard instruments are ubiquitous in the history of European music. Despite the centrality of keyboards to everyday music making, their influence over the ways in which musicians have conceptualized music and, consequently, the music that they have created has received little attention. This dissertation explores how keyboard playing fits into revolutionary developments in music around 1600 – a period which roughly coincided with the emergence of the keyboard as the multipurpose instrument that has served musicians ever since. During the sixteenth century, keyboard playing became an increasingly common mode of experiencing polyphonic music, challenging the longstanding status of ensemble singing as the paradigmatic vehicle for the art of counterpoint – and ultimately replacing it in the eighteenth century. The competing paradigms differed radically: whereas ensemble singing comprised a group of musicians using their bodies as instruments, keyboard playing involved a lone musician operating a machine with her hands.

As a parish priest for 20 years I had always been something of a sceptic about cathedrals. So, it was one of God’s little jokes when I was asked to become a dean. 2. I quickly discovered, of course, just how wrong I had been. These amazing places incorporate everything the Church of England aspires to be in its best moments: congregations are growing and visitor numbers are remarkable; people on the edge of faith experience them as safe spaces to explore Christianity; they have become a focus for enquiry and activity in the public square, gathering places for communities at times of national crisis or celebration, and a crucial source of ‘bridging’ social capital at a time when darker forces threaten to fracture the social landscape.

  • Church in Wales Review July 2012
    Church in Wales Review July 2012 The September 2010 meeting of the Governing Body was notable for the number of contributions from members with a common message: “The Church in Wales cannot go on doing the same things in the same way; some things need to change and we are open to – and indeed encourage – that possibility”. The Standing Committee and Bench of Bishops responded to this call by appointing an external review of the Church, with particular reference to its structures and use of resources, to increase the effectiveness of the Church’s ministry and witness. The Review Group’s members are prominent thinkers with a blend of experience in dealing with matters ecclesiastical and organisational: Lord Harries of Pentregarth, the former Bishop of Oxford; Professor Charles Handy, the eminent writer and adviser on business and organisational theory (and son of a Church of Ireland archdeacon); and Professor Patricia Peattie, former Convenor of the Scottish Episcopal Church’s Standing Committee and the first chairwoman of the Lothian University Hospitals NHS Trust. The aim was to commission a review that could move quickly to gather and assimilate information about the state of the Church in Wales, then provide independent advice on how the Church might reshape itself to be more effective in the twenty-first century. Given the extent of its members’ other commitments, the Review Group has pursued its task with extraordinary vigour and dedication. The Group determined its own approach and programme. It has visited every diocese in Wales, meeting with the Bishop and Diocesan team in each and holding an open meeting for Church members to express their views.

  • Welsh Disestablishment: 'A Blessing in Disguise'
    Welsh disestablishment: ‘A blessing in disguise’. David W. Jones The history of the protracted campaign to achieve Welsh disestablishment was to be characterised by a litany of broken pledges and frustrated attempts. It was also an exemplar of the ‘democratic deficit’ which has haunted Welsh politics. As Sir Henry Lewis1 declared in 1914: ‘The demand for disestablishment is a symptom of the times. It is the democracy that asks for it, not the Nonconformists. The demand is national, not denominational’.2 The Welsh Church Act in 1914 represented the outcome of the final, desperate scramble to cross the legislative line, oozing political compromise and equivocation in its wake. Even then, it would not have taken place without the fortuitous occurrence of constitutional change created by the Parliament Act 1911. This removed the obstacle of veto by the House of Lords, but still allowed for statutory delay. Lord Rosebery, the prime minister, had warned a Liberal meeting in Cardiff in 1895 that the Welsh demand for disestablishment faced a harsh democratic reality, in that: ‘it is hard for the representatives of the other 37 millions of population which are comprised in the United Kingdom to give first and the foremost place to a measure which affects only a million and a half’.3 But in case his audience were insufficiently disheartened by his homily, he added that there was: ‘another and more permanent barrier which opposes itself to your wishes in respect to Welsh Disestablishment’, being the intransigence of the House of Lords.4 The legislative delay which the Lords could invoke meant that the Welsh Church Bill was introduced to parliament on 23 April 1912, but it was not to be enacted until 18 September 1914.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is essentially an analysis of British attitudes towards Indian nationalism between 1922 and 1935. It rests upon the argument that attitudes created paradigms of perception which condi­ tioned responses to events and situations and thus helped to shape the contours of British policy in India. Although resistant to change, attitudes could be and were altered and the consequent para­ digm shift facilitated political change. Books, pamphlets, periodicals, newspapers, private papers of individuals, official records, and the records of some interest groups have been examined to re-create, as far as possible, the structure of beliefs and opinions that existed in Britain with re­ gard to Indian nationalism and its more concrete manifestations, and to discover the social, political, economic and intellectual roots of the beliefs and opinions.

  • St Faith`S Church, Great Crosby Confirmation Registers 1901 – 2000
    1 St Faith`s Church, Great Crosby Confirmation Registers 1901 – 2000 There are two volumes covering the church`s first century, volume 1 covering the period 1901 to 1958 and volume 2 the period 1959 to 2000; volume 2 is not yet full. The registers have entries for a particular confirmation event detailing the names, ages and addresses of those being confirmed (the addresses are not always included for the most recent confirmation candidates). The location of the confirmation service, its date and the Bishop confirming the candidates are given. A number of early male candidates for confirmation came from Merchant Taylors` School which then took boarding pupils. The first volume, for some individuals, mentions when they moved from the district, joined the forces or joined the merchant navy. During the first decade some adults were confirmed privately at the Bishop`s Palace in Liverpool. Services for adults were often held during the latter part of the year and the main confirmation service during March or April. Candidates before WWII would often travel some distance for a confirmation service, in some cases as far as Wigan, Warrington and Rock Ferry. Although most confirmations were conducted by the Bishop of Liverpool or the Bishop of Warrington there have been times when other bishops have conducted the confirmations. Most notable was Lord Runcie of Cuddesdon but in March 1945 the Bishop of the Argentine presided. An interesting feature of the period up to about 1930 is the number of parents who were confirmed shortly before their children were confirmed. In these transcripts some early confirmations are show as having taken place at the Cathedral.

  • Westminster Abbey ASERVICE to CELEBRATE the 60TH ANNIVERSARY of the CORONATION of HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II
    Westminster Abbey ASERVICE TO CELEBRATE THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CORONATION OF HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II Tuesday 4th June 2013 at 11.00 am FOREWORD On 2nd June 1953, the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II followed a pattern established over the centuries since William the Conqueror was crowned in Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day 1066. Our intention in this Service of Thanksgiving is to evoke and reflect the shape of the Coronation service itself. The Queen’s entrance was marked by the Choirs’ singing Psalm 122—I was glad—set to music for the Coronation of EdwardVII by Sir Hubert Parry. The Queen’s Scholars of Westminster School exercised their historic right to exclaim Vivat Regina Elizabetha! (‘Long live Queen Elizabeth!’); so it will be today. The coronation service begins with the Recognition. The content of this part of the service is, of course, not today what it was in 1953, but the intention is similar: to recognise with thanksgiving the dutiful service offered over the past sixty years by our gracious and noble Queen, and to continue to pray God saveThe Queen. The Anointing is an act of consecration, a setting apart for royal and priestly service, through the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Ampulla from which the oil was poured rests today on the HighAltar as a reminder of that central act. St Edward’s Crown also rests today on the High Altar as a powerful symbol of the moment of Coronation. In today’s Service, a flask of Oil is carried by representatives of the people of the United Kingdom to the Sacrarium, received by theArchbishop and placed by the Dean on the High Altar.
