  • The CWG Will Review Aspects of Cathedral Management And
    The Archbishops of Canterbury and York have set up a Cathedrals Working Group, CWG, in response to a request made by the Bishop of Peterborough in his January 2017 Visitation Charge on Peterborough Cathedral for a revision to be carried out of the adequacy of the current Cathedrals Measure. The CWG will review aspects of cathedral management and governance and produce recommendations for the Archbishops on the implications of these responsibilities with regards to the current Cathedrals Measure. It will be chaired by the Bishop of Stepney, Adrian Newman, the former Dean of Rochester Cathedral, and the Dean of York, Vivienne Faull, will be the vice chair. The Working Group will look at a number of different areas of Cathedral governance, including training and development for cathedral deans and chapters, financial management issues, the procedure for Visitations, safeguarding matters, buildings and heritage and the role of Cathedrals in contributing to evangelism within their dioceses. The Bishop of Stepney and the Dean of York said: "Cathedrals contribute uniquely to the ecology of the Church of England, and we are a healthier, stronger church when they flourish. We are pleased to have this opportunity to review the structures that support their ministry, in order to enhance their role in church and society Cathedrals are one of the success stories of the Church of England, with rising numbers of worshippers. They are a vital part of our heritage and make an incalculable contribution to the life of the communities that they serve. This is an exciting opportunity for the Working Group to look at the different aspects of how Cathedrals work, and to ensure that the legislation and procedures they use are fit for purpose for their mission in the 21st century." The Group will report back initially to the Archbishops' Council, Church Commissioners and House of Bishops in December 2017.

  • Thomas Becket: Chancellor, Archbishop and Saint
    Thomas Becket: Chancellor, Archbishop and Saint 7 July: feast day commemorating the translation of his remains from the crypt to Trinity Chapel shrine in the cathedral, 800 years ago, in 1220. 29 December: St. Thomas’s Becket’s feast day, commemorating his martyrdom in Canterbury Cathedral, 850 years ago, in 1170. An extensive programme of events to mark these anniversaries was planned by the cathedral at Canterbury, but because of the Covid-19 pandemic, all have been postponed until 29 December at the earliest. A pilgrimage along the medieval Pilgrim’s Way from Southwark to Canterbury has been cancelled. Holy Trinity Church’s commemorations, centred on our own medieval Becket chantry chapel, have likewise had to be postponed, but the Becket exhibition in the church celebrates these significant 2020 dual anniversaries. Thomas Becket was born c. 1118, in Cheapside, London, son of a Norman merchant father. He rose from these modest beginnings to become a powerful adversary of his king, Henry II, and one of the most venerated medieval Christian saints. Educated first at the Augustinian Merton Priory, then in London and Paris, he started his career serving the city sheriffs as a clerk and accountant; he then became a member of the illustrious household of Archbishop Theobald, who appointed Becket as his agent, and sent by him to study civil and canon law at Bologna and Auxerre. In 1154, Theobald made him Archdeacon of Canterbury, an important and lucrative post, and less than three months later he recommended him to Henry II as Lord Chancellor. In this post, Becket had the opportunity to distinguish himself in initiatives no longer associated with Chancellor; he razed castles, repaired the Tower of London, conducted embassies, mustered and led troops in battle, and was trusted completely by Henry, becoming his close companion and intimate friend, both at court and in the hunting field.
