Foreword

Welcome to the Diocesan Directory for 2025. Here you will find much information about the life of our Diocese.

This year we mark the Jubilee Year of Hope. Given all the recent events in world history, such as the Corona virus pandemic, the wars in Europe and the Middle-East and Ukraine, the Jubilee Year is a great time to invite God into our lives and communities and bring hope to any of the difficulties we face. For those who have been away from the Church, it is also an opportunity to welcome them back and to seek reconciliation with God. Let us take advantage of this Year of Hope for spiritual renewal within ourselves, the parishes, and the Diocese.

With the grace of God, we will continue the good work that has begun with our Pastoral Plan You Will be My Witnesses. In it, we are invited (1) to become a Christ-centred Church, by putting Christ at the centre of our hearts and lives, (2) to become missionary communities, by going out on Christ’s service and mission, and (3) to be prudent stewards of Christ’s Church, by making wise choices to leave a sustainable legacy for future generations. This seeks to put into practice our goal of Bringing People Closer to Jesus Christ through his Church.

All of us have been gifted with many talents. The Framework for Collaboration organises the different vicariates and pastoral departments to assist in a smooth running of the structures of the Diocese for the sole purpose of mission. We collaborate together, using are many God given talents and gifts, to bring people to Jesus Christ through His Church.

The Directory is the fruit of much hard work. We are very grateful to CathCom for all their assistance. Our thanks also to all have given their time and energy, not least to Deacon Craig Aburn, Emma Hind, Alasdair Akass, and Fr Anthony Fyk, who have seen it to completion.

We live in a time of great hope and potential for our beloved Diocese. Let us pray for the intentions of all the lay faithful, the parishes, teachers, schools, religious and clergy recorded in this Directory. I am very grateful for everything you do for God’s Church. It is itself a genuine testimony to God’s grace, His presence and action among us. Let us pray though the intercession of our primary patron of Mary Immaculate and our secondary patron of St Edmund Abingdon, and through the patron of our youth, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, that the Good Lord will continue to guide and renew our vigour and joy.

Diocesan Review of the Year

Anniversaries are always important. From a personal perspective, August this year marked the 40th anniversary of my ordination as a priest. I have much to thank God for, many experiences, many memories, many people I have loved and served. The priesthood is not mine, of course, but Christ’s: I am only a vehicle. It is His priesthood that we celebrate.

But this year in our Diocese has been punctuated with numerous anniversaries. 2024 is the Golden Jubilee of our special link with the Archdiocese of Bamenda in Cameroon. This link continues to flourish after 50 years. During this time, parishioners from across our Diocese have raised more than £1 million for projects in Bamenda in faith, health, education and welfare. It was my predecessor Bishop Derek Worlock who first proposed the link to the then Bishop of Bamenda, Paul Verdzekov. Bishop Worlock had been inspired by the words of Ad Gentes 38 that bishops have a responsibility not only for the Diocese entrusted to them but for the universal Church. Consequently, in 1974, Father Ron Hishon and Father Michael Peters from our Diocese of Portsmouth volunteered to work in Bamenda as Fidei Donum priests. Eight other priests followed in the succeeding decades. In recent times, this has worked the other way round too with five priests from Bamenda currently working over here. Bishops Worlock, Emery and Hollis made visitations to Bamenda. I myself made a brief visit in 2017 but my main memories of Bamenda come from the 7‐day visit in 2014 to mark the 40th anniversary of our link. This year, the Golden Jubilee celebrations culminated in July with a special Mass in our Cathedral attended by Archbishop Andrew Nkea of Bamenda, Father Bernardine Nsom and hundreds of the Cameroonians.

Not all anniversaries are as triumphant. On 6th June, I along with the Cathedral Dean – who himself celebrated the milestone earlier in the year of installation as new Canon of the Chapter – represented the Diocese at the national commemoration of the 80th anniversary of D‐Day on Southsea Common in the presence of their Majesties King Charles and Queen Camilla. It served as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by so many to safeguard the freedoms we enjoy today and of the existential threat to humanity that still pervades from conflicts and divisions that dominate our headlines, whether in Ukraine, the Middle East or elsewhere in the world.

Milestones often present particular challenges. This year, the States of Jersey legislature came closer than ever to legalising euthanasia and assisted suicide on the island. In an impassioned Pastoral Message to Catholics in Jersey, I appealed to them to mobilise and speak out against proposals which, however finely crafted, are totally incompatible with the fundamental role of medical staff, doctors and nurses to preserve human life. I urged them to redouble their efforts in compassionate, palliative care for the frail and terminally ill, a field in which the UK has a deserved, worldwide renown.

By the time of writing, MPs in Westminster had voted in favour of proposals to legalise assisted suicide in England and Wales. The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill would make it legal for over‐18s who are terminally ill to be given assistance to end their own life. Although not unexpected, this vote poses a grave danger with Britain crossing a line from which there will be no return.

As the Catechism of the Catholic Church says: “Whatever its motives and means, direct euthanasia, … putting an end to the lives of handicapped, sick, or dying persons ... is morally unacceptable. An act or omission which, of itself or by intention, causes death in order to eliminate suffering constitutes a murder gravely contrary to the dignity of the human person and to the respect due to the living God… (2277).”

As the Bill now faces many more months of review and scrutiny, I have issued a plea to our worshipping community to pray earnestly and work tirelessly to contain its range and its reach. Indeed, given that some politicians who voted in favour are now wavering in their support, it is more important than ever for people to contact their MP and ensure that their voices are heard.

Critical conversations on the subject of medical ethics and religion formed the basis of a Symposium that the Diocese organised in March in Winchester. The title was: ‘What does it mean to be Human?’ Against the backdrop of a challenged and overstretched Health Service, we brought together healthcare practitioners and people of all faiths and none to explore what prominent exponents in faith and medicine could discover from one another. There were two keynote two presentations: What does it mean to be a Human Being? by Mgr. Michael Nazir Ali, former member of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority and Chair of its Ethics and Law Committee and How significant is the Sexual Revolution? by Ryan Christopher, Policy Officer and Director of ADF UK and co‐founder of Humanum Institute. 120 people took part and joined a series of six workshops on current topics. By the end of the day, I believe we succeeded in helping ‘moral strangers’ begin to become ‘moral friends’, irrespective of their religious beliefs, with a far better understanding of one another and a real sense of mutual respect and appreciation.

For our 69 Catholic Schools (including 13 Independent schools for which we have canonical responsibility), this year has been a watershed moment. Following a period of review, our Board of Trustees approved a plan for the full academisation of our maintained schools into two Catholic Academy Trusts. We believed we had an ambitious plan that worked for all and which, we prayed, would enhance the ‘Catholicity’ of our schools, be advantageous to them, raise standards even higher and guarantee a solid basis for the future. Although changes in government funding have currently impacted on the ability to deliver on this policy, the Trustees remain committed to academisation and collective working approaches that ensure that no school is left unsupported. I have enormously enjoyed undertaking a school visits programme throughout the year and have been struck by the prayerful engagement of the children and young people during our period of lectio divina and eucharistic adoration. Our schools continue to be a great source of inspiration as they spread the Good News of Christ to many who encounter His message for the first time.

As part of this work a number of options were considered, with a proposal that all our voluntary aided schools be incorporated into two Catholic Academy Trusts serving the north and south of the Diocese. The Diocesan Trustees have agreed that this proposal will form part of the Diocesan strategy with the expectation that full academisation will be achieved by September 2027.

The Diocese of Portsmouth covers 2,500 square miles and so there are always challenges for the Bishop to connect and engage with the clergy, religious and faithful throughout the mainland and on the islands. This year we celebrated publication of the 450th edition of my weekly e‐News, the digital round‐up of stories, teachings and events from across the Diocese. I am very proud of the breadth of stories covered every Tuesday showcasing the vitality of our worshipping community from contributors across the parishes. Special mention must go to Deacon Craig Aburn, Bishop’s Executive Assistant, who does such a good job in assiduously putting e‐News together every week.

This year also marked changes to the Diocesan Board of Trustees. Hereward Drummond recently completed his term as Secretary to the Trustees and Father Mark Hogan stepped down as a Trustee. We are most grateful to them for their years of faithful service in their respective roles. Hereward Drummond’s successor is Deacon Tony Darlison, from St Peter and the Winchester Martyrs parish and I have appointed Father Gaston Afah, parish priest of Reading English Martyrs, as a Diocesan Trustee and as Episcopal Vicar for Evangelisation. Meanwhile, I have asked Father Mark to take on a new role as Episcopal Vicar for Parish Mission Development. The Episcopal Vicar for Parish Mission Development will support parish priests in the ‘new’ parishes to become more missional in their focus and ministry. He will

work with Pastoral Areas and parishes to offer support, guidance and wisdom in assisting the parishes implement the Diocesan ten‐year mission‐plan You Will Be My Witnesses, signposting them to resources, opportunities and support. He will also work with 5 or 6 parishes where the parish priest in the new parish has a passion to lead in a missional way, hosting monthly online “parish priest cohorts,” arranging termly in‐person gatherings, meeting annually with each priest in their local context to help review the year and plan for the following year, and with the various parish leadership teams.

There were changes too in the Vocations Vicariate where Father Christopher Heaps has taken on the role of Vocations Director from Canon Gerard Flynn after more than twenty years’ excellent stewardship in that role.

No greater milestone exists on the road to priestly discernment than ordination. In July this year, the Diocese was blessed with two ordinations to the priesthood and three to the diaconate. Father Thomas Hiney and Father Ambrose Chou were ordained as priests in the Cathedral and will serve as assistant priests in the Cathedral and in Jersey respectively. Rev. Stephen Patterson and Rev. Zacharias Parambi were ordained to the diaconate in the Cathedral and will serve respectively in the Windsor and Ascot Pastoral Area and the Portsmouth Pastoral Area. Rev. Ryan Browne, a student for the priesthood, was ordained by me to the diaconate at the English College Villa at Palazzolo. He will be serving in the Cathedral parish this coming year.

I was pleased to fly to Guernsey and visit Canon Gerard Hetherington on the occasion of his Diamond anniversary of ordination. He was ordained in 1964 and served for 15 years as the Island’s Dean. Some forty Dames and Knights from the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem made a special pilgrimage to visit him in Guernsey on this momentous occasion.

In last year’s Review of the Year, I expressed deep gratitude to the munificence of clergy and parishioners for their collective efforts in pledging an incredible £9.5 million towards our ‘Closer to Christ’ campaign. At the time of writing this year, another milestone has been reached as we have well and truly smashed into double figures with £11.6 million pledges received. Such a show of solidarity and support is deeply humbling and will stand us in good stead to meet the campaign aims (1) supporting more seminarians for the future, (2) caring for our priests in active ministry, and (3) looking after our retired clergy following a lifetime of service. The fund will also sustain our parishes following the effects of the pandemic and economic uncertainty.

Of course, not all milestones are about looking back to past attainments, but they are about striving by God’s grace for the future. We may be some way away from the Diocesan vision for 2032, as set out in our ten‐year mission plan You Will Be My Witnesses, but I am heartened by the progress being made to ‘bed in’ the 24 new Pastoral Areas. These were announced last year, and I am looking forward to hearing how local responses to the mission plan have been discerned through my programme of Pastoral Area visitations over the course of the next six months.

We are, of course, looking forward to the once‐in‐a‐generation opportunity that next year’s Jubilee Year ‘Pilgrims of Hope’ affords us as a chance to restore hope, and as a time of renewal and rebirth. In anticipation of the Jubilee Year, Pope Francis has proclaimed this year 2024 to be a year of prayer in preparation. Spending at least 5 minutes per day in prayer using the Scriptures is the first of the Six Holy Habits I have been encouraging the faithful across the Diocese to adopt, devoting one of my Pastoral Letters this year to the subject of prayer. I am most grateful to Father Ansel D’Mello for supporting this endeavour and helping to prepare us for the Jubilee by producing a comprehensive set of online prayer resources.

Global events such as this year’s Olympic Games should naturally be occasions when ideological, cultural and religious differences are put aside, and I, like many, was disappointed by the derision of Christianity in the opening ceremonies. The disdain for our Christian faith is nowadays becoming more commonplace but it is especially pleasing to me, as the Convenor of Hampshire Church Leaders, to witness the power of Christian unity. This year, the Anglican Bishop of Portsmouth, Rt. Rev. Dr. Jonathan Frost and I led a joint ecumenical pilgrimage to Taizé with 40 young people. More recently, we issued a joint communiqué after a spate of civil unrest in the summer following the shocking stabbings in Southport.

In conclusion, as we reflect upon the passage of time, we are reminded of the profound blessings, challenges, and growth that have collectively shaped our spiritual journey. The many significant milestones and special moments that have categorised this last year prompt us to honour the past, to embrace the present, and eagerly to anticipate the future.

Fifty years of the Portsmouth – Bamenda link

This year the partnership between the Diocese of Portsmouth and the Archdiocese of Bamenda in northwest Cameroon celebrated half a century. Fifty years ago Bishop Worlock and Bishop Paul, of the then newly established Diocese of Bamenda, initiated the twinning as a practical demonstration of St Pope Paul VI’s Vatican II document 'Gaudium et Spes'.

Back in 1974, the then Diocese of Bamenda was just four years old, with few priests to administer the Sacraments and share the Gospel message. Churches were few and very far between and the number of members of the laity trained in supporting the Catholic communities was low.

Initially priests from our Diocese worked in Bamenda, teaching the Faith, establishing parishes, training the laity, buildings schools, opening youth ministries, etc. Their mission was hugely successfully and saw the young Church in Bamenda grow and develop. Many Cameroonian young men who responded to the call of the Holy Spirit to the priesthood cite one of those early missionary priests from our Diocese as an important factor in their vocation.

Today, we have the great privilege of welcoming priests from Bamenda into our own parishes. Their mission to us is one of renewal at a time when our communities become daily more secular. We have much to thank God for from this twinning and please God, young men and women in our Diocese will be inspired by our missionary priests from Bamenda to respond positively and selflessly to God’s call to them to follow His call for them to the priestly or religious life.

The Portsmouth Bamenda Committee was established to oversee the delivery of projects funded by money raised in our Diocese. Every penny donated is used to support projects and develop and strengthen the special relationship with the Archdiocese of Bamenda.

JUBILEE MASS

On Saturday 8 July 2024, Bishop Philip welcomed Archbishop Andrew Nkea of Bamenda to celebrate the Golden Jubilee Link between our two Dioceses. The Mass was concelebrated by priests from both dioceses, including the five priests from Bamenda currently serving in our Diocese, or ‘the Fabulous Five’ as Bishop Philip referred to them in his homily (Fathers Emmanual, Elijah, Gaston, Benedikt and Anthony) and Fathers Peter Codd, Tony Gatt and Ron Hishon, all of whom served in Bamenda in the 1970s. Fathers Ron and Peter were two of the first missionary priests from Portsmouth, together with the late Father Frank Isherwood.

Cameroon truly came to the Cathedral that day with many native Cameroonians from across the UK and past and present members of the Portsmouth Bamenda Committee all participating in a truly joyful and colourful celebration of singing, dancing and drumming whilst enjoying its delicious food.

BAMENDA TODAY – ONGOING CIVIL CONFLICT

Bamenda has experienced great civil unrest for some ten years. This has included sectarian killings, the destruction of homes and community building, kidnappings by separatist rebels and has dominated daily life in Bamenda. During this period, tens of thousands of individuals have been killed and over a million fled their homes and sought refuge with extended family in ‘safer’ areas and, all too often, have relied on the kindness of strangers.

Today the situation remains unstable and incidents of violence between the many separatist groups remain frequent and commonplace. Across Bamenda daily life is challenging and on Mondays Bamenda City is a ‘ghost town’. These lockdowns are often violently enforced, part of Operation Ghost Town Resistance, a campaign of mass general strikes instated by Anglophone activists in 2017 in protest of discrimination faced by English speakers in the majority‐Francophone country. Sadly, the civil unrest has made it unsafe and so impossible for anybody from our Diocese to visit the Archdiocese and renew old friendships and strengthen the special relationship.

PROJECT FUNDING

A core aspect of this special relationship are the practical projects that have been funded by money donated at the annual Bamenda Sunday collection. This remains an important and tangible part of the relationship as they provide a lasting and tangible expression of the affection in which parishioners throughout the Diocese of Portsmouth hold the special relationship with the Archdiocese of Bamenda. The ongoing conflict has meant that it has slowed the delivery of development aid projects. The frequent periods of lockdown due to civil unrest and Covid‐19 have disrupted the daily rhythm of life and so delayed build‐focused projects and made those involving training and skills development almost impossible to deliver, as it is often unsafe for participants to travel to training courses.

The last twelve months has seen a gradual improvement in the civil situation and the worst impact of Covid‐19 has abated through a government delivered vaccination programme. This has enabled the PBC to restart its programme of funding projects in 2024.

Projects are proposed by the various Catholic parishes and communities within Bamenda to Archbishop Andrew. Those projects identified as being well suited to funding under the special relationship are then forwarded to the PBC. Following scrutiny by the PBC, the projects recommended for funding are presented to the Diocesan Trustees, in accordance with the PBC’s term of reference, for approval. Although the current civil unrest prevents any members of the PBC travelling to Bamenda to oversee the delivery of these projects, the satisfactory delivery of each project is monitored by periodic update reports and regular updates via What’s App with the project leads in Bamenda and staff from the Archbishop’s office.

In the past year, money raised from last year’s Bamenda Sunday collection has paid for:

• solar power for St Bede’s Secondary School

• fitting out apartments in a new retirement home for clergy, and

• providing theatre equipment for the newly extended St Blaise Hospital, and

• Assisted with the training of youth workers.

• Future projects currently going through the assessment and approval process include:

• Building of a new nursery school in St Felix Parish

• Sponsoring training of youth leaders and facilitators, and

• Supporting the strengths of the community health worker service.

LOOKING FORWARD – THE NEXT FIFTY YEARS

Looking to the future and to the next fifty years of our special relationship, both Bishop Philip and Archbishop Andrew are keen to make their relationship even more special but identifying opportunities for parishes in both Dioceses to twin, either as a whole parish or as a school or other groups within the parish.

During the coming year, the aim is to pilot twinning in a few parishes and increase the number of Diocesan schools partnered with schools in Bamenda. In the last year the following schools have approached the PBC to be twinned with a school in Bamenda:

• St George Catholic College, Southampton

• Notre Dame du Rosaire Primary School, Guernsey, and

• St Mary and St Michael Primary School, Guernsey.

Developing this type of close partnership was far from easy in 1974 as communications were difficult, costly and took a long time. Back then sending letters via the postal system was the only real option and it took several months before letters were delivered, if at all!

But now, the positive impact of social media means that parishes, schools, groups can link via FaceTime, WhatsApp, etc easily and cheaply. So although the ongoing civil conflict continues to make visits to Bamenda very difficult, we can still visit ‘virtually’!

We thank God for all He has given us throughout the fifty years of our special relationship with the Archdiocese of Bamenda. Let us pray for the people of Cameroon, for a solution to the civil unrest and for the faithful of our sister Diocese of Bamenda. And please pray too for our own Diocese of Portsmouth, for the renewal of our clergy and laity, and for ourselves that we may bring many more people closer to Jesus Christ through His Church.

Our Mission Plan

To play your part in our Ten‐Year Mission, start by scanning here with your smart phone.

Alternatively, please visit our website: www.portsmouthdiocese.org.uk/our‐mission/ planning/ten‐year‐plan/

Become a Christ­Centred Church

The first principle of our Mission Plan is to be a Christ‐Centred Church. Our hope is that each one of us will be formed to foster a deep and lasting relationship with Jesus Christ. Inspired by the Mass and the Sacraments of the Church we will grow in faith and be confident in evangelising others.

1

Uplifting and devotional liturgy through music and prayer.

Ongoing formation in faith for all: both clergy and lay.

Locally­led evangelisation.

Ask Yourself…

Your time, talent and treasure are needed to support this plan of renewal. “The harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few…” (Matthew 9:37)

You could: Pray for renewal in our Church, talk about your faith and what it means to you, give some time to serve those in need to truly be the Church beyond walls, serve in one of the many ministries on which your parish depends, welcome new people and get to know others in your local community to build the family of faith.

Grow and Galvanise Missionary Communities

The second goal of our Mission Plan is to build missionary communities. The Church exists to evangelise; to bring people closer to Jesus Christ. Our missionary communities should be welcome to all, evangelistic, and understanding in how to support others, wherever they are, on their pilgrim journey.

In the words of John Henry Newman:

“God has some work assigned to you and you only- we each have a mission and a role to play, in bringing about this inspiring diocesan plan.”

Leadership focused on mission and service.

Our young Church Nurtured and inspired. Church Beyond walls.

Lay the Foundations of a Vibrant Diocese for Future Generations

The Lord has given us many gifts to carry out His mission of evangelisation. This includes the talents of all those individuals who make up our communities and who offer their lives, talents, charisma, vocations, faith, experience and time. We are also blessed with temporal resources, such as property, building, savings, income and other financial resources which support our staff, clergy and maintenance of adequate facilities.

Prudent stewardship is necessary to ensure that our Mission Plan is effectively resourced and brings the Church in our Diocese to a sustainable position for a vibrant future. This the third pivotal goal of our diocesan strategy.

Reshaped structures.

Prudent stewardship of our resources.

Investing for the future.

Supporting the Diocese

Closer to Christ Campaign

The Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth’s Closer to Christ campaign, launched at an important time for the Diocese – both pastorally and financially – came to a close in parishes after three years of active campaigning. Closer to Christ has been an inclusive initiative, receiving generous support from parishioners at all levels with gifts ranging from £5 to £500,000. The Campaign’s overarching objectives have been to support Diocesan Priests through all stages of their ministry and to revitalise our local parish communities. These aims include funding Seminarians through their formation for the Priesthood, supporting the wellbeing of Priests in active ministry, providing support for our retired Priests in recognition of their life of service to the Church, and simultaneously rejuvenating our parishes resources after the impact of the Covid pandemic, ensuring that they have the necessary resources for parish life and mission.

We are enormously thankful to Priests and parishes right across the Diocese who have entered into this Campaign with generosity reflecting their love for the Church and their hope for the future. A total of 3,263 pledges have been received, with households giving an average pledge of £3,570. Three out of every four parishes that have taken part to date have not only achieved their goal but surpassed it, some by significant amounts. By any standards, Closer to Christ has been tremendously successful with parishioners from every corner of the Diocese answering the call to support the clergy and contribute towards local parish priorities. It’s not too late to play your part! You can still support the Campaign by emailing closertochristcampaign@portsmouthdiocese.org.uk to request a pledge form and for more information.

What is Gift Aid and how does it work?

Gift Aid is a government scheme that lets charities claim tax relief on the donations that you make to them.

The idea behind it is that you're usually making donations from your post‐tax income. The charity then takes your donation, and – if you've agreed to Gift Aid claims your basic‐rate (20%) tax back from HM Revenue & Customs.

To claim Gift Aid on your donation, the charity will need:

• Your name and address

• You to declare that you pay tax in the UK of an amount at least equal to the donation you are making (those who pay no tax shouldn't use the Gift Aid scheme).

• Your signature (or a box ticked if it's online) and the date.

Here's how it works...

You make a donation of £10 to your parish and agree the charity can claim Gift Aid. The charity then claims £2.50 from in tax relief, meaning your total donation now amounts to £12.50 at no extra cost to yourself

To obtain a Gift Aid form, please contact your parish office.

Diocese of Portsmouth Free Will Scheme

In 2024 the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth partnered with market‐leading solicitors and will‐writing providers to offer anyone over 18 to easily write or update a basic simple or mirror Will for free. Whether you would like to write your Will in person, online or over the ‘phone you will be expertly supported through the process. You are under no obligation to leave the Diocese a gift in your Will, but a gift of this kind is an opportunity to make a lasting gift to God and His Church. This service is available across the Diocese including in Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Wight.

Making or updating a Will is an expression of profound confidence that Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life; it is a mature and thoughtful way of acknowledging our own mortality. Making provision for

the Church in our Will is a continuation and crown of the service we ourselves may have offered over many years, in terms of our time, our talents and our treasure. It is following in the footsteps of all those whose generosity in generations past has bequeathed us the Church we know and love today. It reminds us that through baptism we belong to the great communion of saints, united with the Lord as a member of His Church both on earth and in heaven. Once you have considered your loved ones, you may choose to leave a legacy to a specific cause, Pastoral Area or parish in the Diocese; or, as good stewards, we will apply any gift given for the Diocese’s general charitable purposes where there is the greatest need. Take the first step towards making your free Will by calling 0800 773 4014 to book an appointment with a qualified Will‐writer today.

Support the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth with a gift in your Will

Every time someone leaves a gift in their Will to the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth, they are entrusting us to ensure that it makes a positive difference to our clergy, church communities and to our overarching mission to bring people closer to Christ through his Church. Every gift, no matter what size, has a lasting impact. We are truly indebted to all those who choose to support us in this way. If you would like to support the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth with a gift in your Will, it won’t cost you a penny in your lifetime, but will have an enduring impact for generations to come. Making provision for the Diocese isn’t costly or complicated. To start a conversation, please get in touch with Alasdair Akass, Head of Communications and Fundraising at aakass@portsmouthdiocese.org.uk

O

ffertory income

The Offertory, or Collection, at Mass is an integral part of the Sunday liturgy, not just because it is the primary means by which the parish receives financial support from the parishioners, but because it is also an expression of our gratitude to God for the blessings He has given us to return a portion of them back to Him for use by His Church. For each of us, the offertory is an invitation that we will make our own contribution to the sacrifice of Christ.

For many people, it is now much easier to give by bank standing order or direct debit. It also helps people gradually to increase their regular giving from year to year in line with inflation, without having to find odd amounts of cash every week.

Switching to direct debits or standing orders:

• improves the regularity and consistency of church income

• cuts the volunteer time needed to open and check the envelopes after the service

• minimises the risks involved in weekly cash banking

• cuts stationery costs ‐ dated envelope sets are fairly expensive

Diocesan Funds and Levies

Berkshire

Secular Clergy Fund (The BOAR)

A benevolent fund for priests working in Berkshire. The Chief Administrator would welcome interest and donations to continue the work of this Fund.

Administrator Rev Padraig Faughnan

Diocesan Clergy Assistance Fund

The Diocese is ultimately responsible for providing for its priests in need. This Fund derives its income from the annual collection on the Fourth Sunday of Lent and from bequests.

Diocesan Fund Levy

The Diocesan Fund Levy funds the central administration of the Curia of the diocese. It is taken four times a year out of parish general funds on 1st March, 1st June, 1st September and 1st December.

Diocesan Schools Building Fund

The Diocesan Schools Building Fund (DSBF) was introduced in September 2000 in order to provide the contribution needed towards building and repair projects at our Voluntary Aided Schools. 50% of the Fund is provided by parishes regardless of whether or not they have access to a Catholic school; 50% of the Fund is provided by schools from donations from the parents of the children attending the school.

Priests’ Retirement Fund

The Fund is applied for the housing, maintenance and support of priests incardinated in the Diocese of Portsmouth who have retired.

Diocese of Portsmouth

THE FRAMEWORK FOR COLLABORATION

1. THE DIOCESAN CURIA OR ‘FRAMEWORK FOR COLLABORATION’

The Diocesan Curia consists of those institutions and persons, which assist the Bishop in the governance of the diocese, especially in guiding pastoral action, in caring for administration within the overall authority of the Diocesan Trust Deed and in exercising judicial power (Can. 469). In the Diocese of Portsmouth, the Diocesan Curia is also called the ‘Framework for Collaboration.’ It comprises many teams, experts and ministers who directly assist the pastoral mission and life of the Diocese.

The Bishop

The Bishop, assisted by his priests and deacons, acts sacramentally in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ as the High Priest, Teacher and Shepherd of the Diocese, that is, that portion of the Lord’s flock entrusted to him.

Vicars General

For the governance of the Diocese of Portsmouth, the Bishop has appointed two Vicars General (VG) to assist him. By virtue of their office, the VGs exercise the Bishop’s executive power throughout the Diocese, namely, the power to perform all administrative acts within and subject to the authority of the terms of reference, policies and Diocesan Operating Procedures of the Diocese and other authorities approved from time to time by the Trustees with the consent of the Bishop, except those which the Bishop has reserved to himself or which require a special mandate of the Bishop by law or which are reserved to themselves by the Trustees or expressly delegated by the Trustees to committees or officers of the Diocese or other persons with the consent of the Bishop. One VG has been appointed as the Moderator of the Curia, in order to coordinate administrative matters and to ensure that those who belong to the curia fulfil the offices entrusted to them (Can. 473 §2).

Episcopal Vicars

The Bishop appoints Episcopal Vicars (EV), with the same ordinary power as a VG but limited to a specific pastoral competence. The role of Vicar for Clergy is currently exercised by one of the VGs. Because the EVs like the VGs share ordinary jurisdiction directly in the Bishop’s mission, the VGs and EVs are priests.

The Bishop’s Council

The Bishop’s Council is an advisory body; it serves the Bishop. It comprises the two VGs and three EVs (can. 473 §4). The Bishop’s Secretary acts as its Secretary. A sub-committee of the Bishop’s Council (formed of the Bishop and the two VGs one of whom is the Vicar for Clergy) form the Personnel Committee, which is concerned chiefly with the welfare and deployment of the clergy, although in some cases, clergy matters are discussed in confidence with the whole Bishop’s Council.

The Head of Safeguarding

The Head of Safeguarding is employed to co -ordinate safeguarding matters within the Diocese, including for those religious communities affiliated to the Diocese. The Head of Safeguarding is accountable to the Trustees of the Diocese, the Bishop and the Safeguarding Committee, providing assurance that the safeguarding functions and responsibilities are managed in accordance with the national policies and procedures and in support of the quality standards as set out by the Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency. The Head of Safeguarding directs the business of the Safeguarding Office, managing all matters relating to concerns and allegations of abuse, and maintains active links with statutory agencies and local safeguarding partnerships

The Safeguarding Committee

The Safeguarding Committee is a sub -committee of the diocesan Trustees and chaired by a nominated Trustee. The Committee comprises clergy members and independent professional people, appointed by the Trustees with the prior approval of the Bishop, to act on their behalf to oversee the implementation of the standards, procedures and guidelines of the Catholic

Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA). The Committee membership comprises people with specific experience and expertise in safeguarding and includes representatives from the police, safeguarding organisations, social care and the probation service. The Committee meets 6 times a year, with the Head of Safeguarding reporting to the Committee regarding strategic and operational work and performance management.

The Safeguarding Office

The Safeguarding Office, under the direction of the Head of Safeguarding, is responsible for the processing of DBS checks as part of the wider safe- recruitment policy of the Catholic Church in England and Wales. It keeps a database for the diocese and also maintains information on the national database held by CSSA. It is responsible for the recruitment and training of parish representatives in the procedures they must follow when volunteers are appointed in the parish, in best practice in dealing with situations where children and vulnerable adults are present, and in what to do when concerns arise over a particular situation or person including compliance with the relevant Diocesan Operating Procedures. The Safeguarding Office co-ordinates a training programme across the Diocese and offers general support to the Head of Safeguarding.

The Chancery

The Bishop appoints a Chancellor, whose task is to ensure that the acts of the curia are drawn up, dispatched and archived according to due form and process. In cases of marriage, the Chancellor by mandate of the Bishop, has powers to dispense from impediments to marriage dispensable by the Ordinary (Can 1078). He acts as a sole judge in cases concerning the impediment of ligament and in cases concerning the defect of canonical form. He can dispense from canonical form (Can 1127 n.2) and grant retroactive validation (Can 1161 & 1165). Moreover, by mandate of the Bishop, the Chancellor may grant diocesan faculties to a visiting priest, grant leave of absence, issue celebrets , grant faculties to receive a non -Catholic into full communion with the Church and grant priests of the diocese the faculty to administer the Sacrament of Confirmation (Can 882). The Chancellor has a further responsibility for maintaining the diocesan Foundation Mass Book, managing the Mass stipends account and distributing Masses where necessary. The Chancellor may also act as a notary for the Bishop’s Office.

The Diocesan Tribunal

The Bishop appoints a duly qualified Judicial Vicar to act on his behalf in all judicial and canonical matters. The work of the Diocesan Tribunal in practice is chiefly concerned with applications for a decree of nullity or dissolution of a marriage bond. A divorced party approaches the Tribunal for the investigation of their previous marriage in order to establish whether the marriage was a valid marriage and whether there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that an essential element of marriage was absent so that a declaration of nullity can be granted.

The Chief Operating Officer (COO)

The Chief Operating Officer manages the work of the Diocesan Curia and Framework teams. She has overall responsibility for the administrative and financial operations of the Diocese. As Oeconomus, she is responsible for administering the temporal goods of the Diocese on behalf of the Bishop.

The Trustees

The Diocese is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO), registered as the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth under charity number 1199568 in England, 457 in Jersey and CH263 in Guernsey. As a charity, the Diocese is governed by a Board of Trustees who have legal responsibility for the Diocese’s management and administration, including all its resources and activities in the curia and in each parish. In addition, Trustees have a number of legal duties, these include ensuring that the Diocese is carrying out its purposes, that it is complying with the law and its Constitution, that decisions are made in the Diocese’s best interests and that resources are managed responsibly. The Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth’s Board of Trustees is comprised of a mix of clergy and lay trustees from across the Diocese, who are appointed by the Bishop in his role as sole member of the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth. The Board of Trustees also forms the Diocesan Finance Council and is constituted in accordance with Canon 492.

Support and Administration Services

The Support and Administration Services are managed directly by the Chief Operating Officer. These services exist to assist the Bishop and Trustees in the administration of the temporal goods of the diocese and its parishes: its land and buildings, money, investments and the discharge of its legal and contractual obligations.

The Finance Team handles a wide variety of work and activity across many functions; internally, this includes supporting all parishes on financial reporting, gift aid and all aspects of banking, supporting the clergy and Curial departments, regular financial reporting and preparation of management accounts, managing the Investment Portfolio, and providing Trustees and members of the FAR Committee with the information to make decisions and understand and manage risk. Externally, the team works with the Diocesan auditors to prepare and finalise the statutory accounts and comply with all regulatory matters, and manages the relationship with banks, HMRC and other regulatory bodies.

The HR Team provides support and guidance on employment issues for all employees, line managers and volunteers as well as support for professional development and employee wellbeing.

The Estates Team manages the Diocesan Estate including parish buildings, land, and schools, overseeing acquisition, rentals, sales, routine upkeep, maintenance, and development as well as health and safety compliance and training.

The Governance Team enables senior leaders and the Board of Trustees (and associated SubCommittees) to run the Diocese legally, ethically, sustainably, and successfully by ensuring that the appropriate support structures, policies and processes are in place to enable them to meet their responsibilities and obligations. The Team also handles insurance matters and supports parishes and teams with data protection, procurement, and contract management.

The Communications and Fundraising Team is responsible for both internal and external communication, promoting the Diocesan mission of bringing people closer to Jesus Christ through His Church, protecting and enhancing the Diocese’s reputation, and strengthening communications between the Cura and parishes to help foster a more inclusive and collaborative culture. The Team is responsible for ensuring clarity and consistency in messaging across a broad range of traditional and digital media channels. The Communications and Fundraising Team is additionally responsible for coordinating and optimising fundraising in all its forms throughout the Diocese, stewardship of donors, and for ensuring that all fundraising activity is conducted safely, legally and complies with the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Fundraising Practice.

2. THE DIOCESAN VISION

One of the princip al duties of the Framework for Collaboration and of every team is to enable the implementation of the Diocesan Vision: Bringing People Closer to Jesus Christ through His Church. The key goal is

Becoming More Holy

Let every disciple of Christ - clergy, consecrated and lay - seek to become more holy. This is about ‘deepening’ in order to be more effective witnesses: deepening our faith and spiritual life, becoming people of prayer and sacrifice, and thus becoming more effective and more credible witnesses of Jesus Christ to others.

The Four Main Vision-Priorities

1. Dependence on God

Let us implore the Holy Spirit to make us people filled with joy and creativity. This is the conversion needed to shift from maintenance to mission: that we trust completely in God and His Word through intense prayer, that we ask God for a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit, to unite and inspire our Diocese, its clergy and laity, with constant joy and creativity in developing new ministries and new ways of living the Gospel.

2. Reaching Out

Let us go out beyond our usual circles to find new disciples of Christ.

This is the ‘far evangelisation :’ that we reach out on mission beyond the Catholic community to proclaim the Gospel far and wide, helping people to come to know, serve and love Jesus Christ in the communion of His Church, working with other Christians and with all people of good will.

3. Reaching In

Let us help all Catholics develop a personal friendship with Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. This is the ‘near evangelisation:’ that we help all Catholics, to convert and deepen their personal relationship with Jesus Christ, loving Him above all in the Holy Eucharist. This includes a special mission to baptised Catholics who are lapsed or not yet practicing.

4. Service to All

Let us make our parishes and schools into communities that serve the poor and needy, with concern for the natural environment and for social justice. This is the conversion from being inward -looking to being outward -looking people/communities: that all our parish and school communities become centres of service, focused on serving the poor and those on the margins.

Three Areas of Special Attention

a) Youth

Let us listen and bring the Gospel to young people, singles and families. This is the concern to do all we can to hand on the gift of faith to young men and to young women, converting, forming and equipping them as joyful missionary -disciples of Christ.

b) Vocations

Let us develop a culture of vocation and discernment of gifts and charisms. We need to pray for, foster and support vocations to all states of life and ministry in the Church, including new initiatives and communities, but especially vocations to the sacred priesthood.

c) Targeting Resources

Let us use our resources more imaginatively in service of our mission. We need to use our property and our human and financial resources more flexibly and more intentionally in service of the new evangelisation.

3. THE FRAMEWORK, ITS THREE VICARIATES AND SIX DEPARTMENTS

The Three Vicariates of the Framework

Within the Framework for Collaboration there are three Vicariates: for Vocation, for Education and for Evangelisation. The Vicariates act in compliance with and within powers delegated to them under terms of reference and Diocesan Operating Procedures and policies approved from time to time by the Trustees with the consent of the Bishop. The Framework is theologically grounded on Christ and his three-fold office as Priest, Prophet and King, that is, the triple munera of sanctifying (his high priesthood), teaching (his prophetic mission) and shepherding (his rule). The three Vicariates also represent three dynamically interrelated strands of Christian discipleship, animated by the Holy Spirit: call - formation - mission. Inspired by the Holy Spirit, the call of the disciple leads him/her to formation in the life and teaching of Christ, and this in turn leads to him/her being sent out on mission. This suggests that in the Framework, there is a direction of travel, from left to right, with the outcome in evangelisation. Yet evangelisation is always two-way: outreach ad extra impels a disciple to reach inwards ad intra and vice versa. These dialectical tensions orientate the Framework and infuse the curia with dynamism, to be both top-down and trans-directional, to be collaborative within each Vicariate and to engage horizontally across the Vicariates in common projects and enterprises.

The Six Departments

Each Vicariate is divided into two Departments. These are led by a priest, a deacon, a religious or a layperson and these Heads of Department report regularly to their EV. They will also meet frequently with the Bishop to discuss and align policy. The six Departments are as follows:

Vicariate for Vocation: Department for Vocation; and Vicariate for Vocation: Department for Clergy.

Vicariate for Education: Catholic Academies and Schools Office; and Vicariate for Education: Department for Educational Chaplaincies.

Vicariate for Evangelisation: Department for Charity; and Vicariate for Evangelisation: Department for New Evangelisation.

This allocation of Departments to Vicariates ‘steers’ departmental policies. Some Departments are divided into Sub-Departments. All Departments and Sub-Departments comprise team-activities. The allocation of Teams is sometimes self-explanatory and sometimes pragmatic (e.g. to share out tasks more equitably across the Vicariates).

Department for Vocation

The Department of Vocation comprises two Sub-Departments: (1) Discipleship and Vocation, and (2) Liturgy. The Department is concerned with the call to discipleship, pre-discipleship and initial proclamation, with particular vocations and with inserting the disciple more deeply into the life of Christ and His Church, especially into the sacred liturgy. It helps to discern, support, promote and celebrate vocations to the priesthood, diaconate, religious life, the consecrated life, the new movements, marriage and family life, celibacy and the single life within the Church. It seeks to identify charisms and to promote spiritual development. It works to advance the liturgical formation of the Diocese in its various dimensions.

Department for Clergy

The Department for Clergy comprises two Sub-Departments: (1) Bishop’s Office for the Support of the Clergy, and (2) Chaplaincies. The Bishop’s Office for the Support of the Clergy, led by the Vicar for Clergy, looks after the welfare, on-going formation and personal support of priests, deacons and retired clergy. The Department also facilitates the various chaplaincy services of the Diocese: the care of the sick and the needs of the disabled, hospital and prison chaplaincies, ethnic groups, links with the ordinariate, the provision of the Extraordinary Form and care of those from other Rites. The aim of the Chaplaincies Sub- Department is to serve the needs of individuals and to make various provisions in order to release the gifts of all for service of the Church: ‘ministry to’ for the sake of ‘ministry of’.

Catholic Academies and Schools Office (CASO)

The Catholic Academies and Schools Office (CASO), led by the Director of Education, ensures on behalf of the Bishop (cf. CIC 803.1) that all the Catholic schools of our Diocese (independent, maintained voluntary aided and maintained academies) operate as ‘Catholic schools’ in accordance with both canon and civil law. Schools and parishes are the two principal agencies of the mission of the Church in our diocese and the Department seeks to develop our schools as key diocesan tools of evangelisation in union with the local parishes, Pastoral Areas and Deaneries. Just as parishes are Catholic Eucharistic Communities, so schools are Catholic Formation Communities comprising students, teachers, staff, parents and governors. CASO promotes and develops all aspects of the Catholic nature of our schools providing direction and advice on educational matters. It represents the Bishop at senior leadership appointments, and administers the appointment of foundation governors and directors. It advises and supports governing bodies on their canonical, statutory and legal responsibilities as maintained voluntary aided schools, maintained academies and independent schools. The Department promotes excellence in Catholic education in all diocesan schools, especially in Religious Education, collective worship and religious education resources, all of which is at the heart of the curriculum and purpose of a Catholic school. The Department is also responsible for the canonical and statutory inspections that take place, advising the Bishop on the quality of our schools.

Department for Educational Chaplaincies

The Department for Educational Chaplaincies coordinates our secondary and tertiary level school, academy and university chaplaincies, as well as the wide field of Youth Ministry, including Youth Workers, the Confirmation Follow -Up and diocesan youth programmes, the organisation of youth days and events, the links with the new youth movements and the spiritual formation of altar servers (the latter in liaison with the Liturgy Team and Diocesan MC).

Department for Charity

The Department for Charity comprises two Sub-Departments: (1) Diocesan Outreach; and (2) Bamenda, coordinates the charitable outreach of the Diocese in its schools and parishes. It promotes justice, peace and social responsibility, the charities in our Diocese, the work of Caritas Diocese of Portsmouth, environmental concern and the ecclesial exchange with Bamenda.

Department for New Evangelisation

The Department of New Evangelisation comprises three Sub-Departments: (1) New Evangelisation, (2) Formation for Mission; and (3) Dialogue and Proclamation. The Department promotes the work of new evangelisation through the Episcopal Vicar for Parish Mission & Development, the Social Research Unit, the formation of children and adults for mission, and the dialogues with fellow-Christians, with the other religions, and with the cultural sectors. It also includes the Jewish-Christian fellowship, outreach to people of goodwill (‘Courtyard of the Gentiles’) and promoting right relationships with the civil authorities.

4. THE SUB - DEPARTMENTS

4.1

Department for Vocation: Discipleship and Vocation

This Sub -Department of Discipleship and Vocation is concerned with the call to discipleship, with welcoming new members into the Church, and with assisting every member of the Diocese (lay, consecrated and ordained) to grow in discipleship and to discern their God -given vocation. It promotes vocations to every state of life and ministry within the Church. It includes helping people discern a call to perpetual virginity, to consecrated life and to the religious life. It also supports links with the various ecclesial movements and communities. It promotes vocations to the diaconate. Above all, through the Vocations Director, it seeks to promote vocations to the sacred priesthood. This Sub -Department will probably develop further sub -teams as it works progresses. The Diaconate Director, Vocations Promoter and Vocations Director work directly in collaboration with the Bishop

4.2 Department for Vocation: Liturgy

The Sub-Department for Liturgy seeks to facilitate the worthy celebration of the Liturgy across the Diocese and the liturgical formation of both clergy and laity.

It fosters liturgical music, and the formation and training of liturgical musicians in plainsong, choral and contemporary styles as well as classical and modern hymnody. It also comprises the Liturgical Formation Director, the Liturgical Formation Team, those who advise the Bishop and trustees on matters of art, architecture and patrimony, those who arrange cathedral liturgies and events, those who compile the annual Ordo and those responsible for the Archconfraternity of St. Stephen.

4.3 Department for Clergy: Bishop’s Support of the Clergy

Led by the Vicar for Clergy and his team of advisers, helpers, support staff and associates, the Sub -Department Bishop’s Support of Clergy comprises a number of services and activities to support the holistic well-being of the clergy, both active and retired, such as the provision of spiritual direction, counselling, appraisal, on -going formation and practical advice. It organises retreats, ministerial formation days, courses and sabbaticals. It compiles the Supply Registry. It looks after the junior clergy, the overseas clergy and especially the retired clergy. It is the principal mechanism through which the Bishop looks after the wellbeing of the clergy.

4.4 Department for Clergy: Chaplaincies

The Sub -Department of Chaplaincies seeks to promote the welfare and support of all the sick, the differently abled, the housebound, the bereaved, the dying, the mentally ill and anyone with special needs across the Diocese, spiritually and practically (e.g. the visually or aurally impaired). It seeks to incorporate them more fully into Christ and His Church so that their gifts can be released and their ministry enabled. The Sub -Department seeks to network, support and incorporate the various ethnic groups of Catholics present in our Diocese for prayer and social gatherings. It facilitates associations of those in special ministry such as prison and hospital chaplains, as well as forging links with military groups, the provision of Other Rites and with the Ordinariate. It also seeks to oversee the provision of liturgical rites in the Extraordinary Form, where these are needed.

4.5 Department for Charity: Bamenda Committee

It also includes ministry to inactive Catholics, encouraging all to a deeper practice of their faith.

4.8 Department for New Evangelisation: Formation for Mission

The Sub -Department of Formation for Mission aims to awaken the desire for a personalpassionate love for Jesus Christ within the communion of his Body the Church and thus to encourage and enable active missionary -discipleship. It seeks to establish and develop a network of catechists across the Diocese and to look after their on-going formation. Formation for Mission looks to the catechesis of children and young adults, including sacramental preparation (baptism, confirmation, first holy communion), and adult formation, including the RCIA process and higher education programmes in liaison with our privileged partners, St. Mary’s Twickenham and the Maryvale Institute.

4.9 Department for New Evangelisation: Dialogue and Proclamation

The Sub -Department of Dialogue and Proclamation promotes the mission of the Church ad extra , seeking to befriend and engage in dialogue with individuals, groups, and culture in general. This includes the search for deeper unity in doctrine, life and worship with our brothers and sisters in the other Christian communities, a deeper fraternity with our Jewish elders, and interreligious dialogue in its various aspects. The Sub -Department seeks to promote a critical dialogue with the various cultural sectors, a courtyard for discussion with non -believers and better relations with civic persons such as MPs and local government officers.

5. THE FRAMEWORK TEAMS

5.1 THE FOUR TYPES OF TEAM

Within the Framework, each Department and/or Sub-Department comprises various Teams. There are four types of Team.

5.1.1

Type One Team

A Type One Team is composed of those who are employees of the Diocese or contracted on terms and conditions determined by the Trustees. Most of these are members of the curia, CASO and the Support and Administration Services. They respond to their designated line-managers and/or to the COO.

5.1.2

Type Two Team

A Type Two Team comprise volunteers, specialists and support staff appointed directly by the Bishop and/or Bishop’s Council. They assist and work under a Director of a Department or Sub-Department. Some of the parameters and procedures for Type Four Teams apply.

5

.1.3 Type Three Team

A Type Three Team comprises ‘specialists’ who form quasi-professional organisations: e.g. hospital chaplains, the Junior Clergy Group. These Teams, as their names suggest, have a restricted membership, with meetings and programmes designed by themselves for their mutual support and professional development. The Bishop’s Council approves their leadership, team-membership and the programme of work they conduct. Each Team includes (1) a chair or convenor, (2) a chaplain, (3) a secretary and reporter, (4) an ‘advertiser’, (5) a treasurer and (6) a factotum, in addition to other team members.

5.1.4 Type Four Team

Type Four Teams comprise the rest of the Teams within the Framework for Collaboration. These are Teams of volunteers. They meet at least six times per year to pray, to help form themselves and to form others, to discuss and devise policy, to sponsor and enable projects, and to encourage and enable pastoral areas and parishes, the clergy and people at local level, to pursue the task in hand (e.g. activities relating to justice, peace and social responsibility). The Bishop and the Bishop’s Council approve membership, appoint the team leaders/chaplains and in some cases designate specific experts and others as team-members. The other members of the Team may be proposed by team leaders/chaplains to the Bishop’s Council for approval, and in addition anyone from across the Diocese may volunteer through the team leader/chaplain to the Bishop’s Council for approval and membership. Members are initially appointed for 18 months, and then for three years, subject to annual appraisal. Team members, unless otherwise indicated, must be over 18 years old and practising Catholics in good standing with the Church. They should be ‘mainstream’, intellectually, morally and spiritually converted to Christ and his Church, in full communion of mind and heart with the Bishop and happy to work under the general direction of the Bishop’s Council. Where possible and practicable, Teams consist of an equitable balance of women and men, of geographical spread across the Diocese, and of age ranges (18-25, 26-40, 41-60, and 61+). Team members are expected to show commitment to their Team, an appropriate level of confidentiality, a genuine desire to practice collaboration within a team-situation, and to work collaboratively with other Teams in the Framework where common projects emerge and other opportunities arise. Each Team includes (1) a chair or convenor, (2) a chaplain, (3) a secretary and reporter, (4) an advertiser, (5) a treasurer and (6) a factotum, in addition to other team members.

5.2 SOME OPERATIONAL DETAILS

Type One Teams and Type Two Teams

The members of Type One and Type Two Teams derive their purpose and direction from their Director and from their terms of reference and, in some cases, contracts of employment. The aim is to implement and enable the fulfilment of the Diocesan Vision in relation to the Descriptor for the Department or Sub-Department.

Type Three Teams

Members of Type Three Teams derive their purpose and direction principally from their professional needs in relation to the implementation and fulfilment of the Diocesan Vision. The Vision are seen in relation to the Descriptor for their Team within its Department or Sub-Department. However, what follows next in relation to Type Four Teams is also of relevance.

Type Four Teams

Members of Type Four Teams derive their purpose and direction from their Team Descriptor. The aim is to implement and enable the fulfilment of the Diocesan Vision in relation to the Descriptor for their Team within its Department or Sub-Department. A typical way of work would be as follows:

1. Prayer, formation, study and reflection on the Four Priorities of the Diocesan Vision. What do they mean for this field of work?

2. Prayer, formation, study and reflection on the Team Descriptor, unpacking its meaning and relevance, exploring its scope and discussing its implications. Has the Team Descriptor and its scope been clearly understood?

3. Prayer and discernment, study and reflection on the situation, as it presents itself in the personal experience of team-members, and in the life of the parishes and pastoral areas of the Diocese. What is already going on? What is missing or not happening? What constitutes an example of good practice? What constitutes bad practice, and why?

4. Discuss and devise policy and priorities for short, medium and long term. What is our purpose here? What are the most important things that need to be done? What might this Team affirm, encourage and/or facilitate at parish and/or diocesan level in relation to this field of work? What might be done first, then later (e.g. three years), then in long term?

5. Devise and discuss projects (simple, realistic, measurable). Discuss budget and resource implications. Then, select agreed targets. Ask how? Build a basic project-plan and outline what is required. Forward proposals for approval to (sub-) Departmental Director.

6. Commence implementation of approved policies and projects, advertise work underway and seek prayer, then report on progress made. Plan ahead, resources permitting to next cycle of activity.

6. TEAM - DESCRIPTORS AND NOTES ON VARIOUS MINISTERS

6.1 VICARIATE FOR VOCATION

6.1.1 Pre-Discipleship Team (Type 4 Team)

The Pre-Discipleship Team comprises up to 12 members and will develop further ‘sub-teams’ as its work progresses. It includes a member of the Formation for Mission Team with responsibility for the RCIA and a teacher or governor from a Catholic school. Its tasks include: (1) exploring the needs and situations of those on the peripheries of the Church; (2) discussing in practice the call to discipleship (“first contact”), the thresholds of conversion and the various activities focused on preevangelisation and initial proclamation that can lead into catechesis; (3) guiding and supporting parish welcome teams and helping to develop in parishes and schools a stronger culture of welcome; (4) building a sense of belonging to the Body of Christ, especially godparents and sponsors, and with First Communion and Confirmation parents; (5) promoting and supporting Alpha, Sycamore and other resources (e.g. from Ascension) to assist parishes and schools in proclaiming the kerygma to newcomers and enquirers; (6) encouraging a culture of formation in discipleship in parishes and schools to assist everyone to grow in their journey of faith; (7) introducing and running the Ananias Training, thus forming people in the art of spiritual accompaniment.

The Spiritual Formation Team works closely with the other Teams in the Department of Vocation (e.g. Called and Gifted), with the Bishop’s Support of the Clergy, and with the Formation for Mission SubDepartment.

6.1.3 Called and Gifted (Type 4 Team)

The Called and Gifted Team comprises the teachers and interviewers trained to roll out the Called and Gifted Program across the Diocese and, on request with the Bishop’s permission across neighbouring dioceses. The Program seeks to identify and release the charisms that God has given an individual disciple and to enable them to develop those gifts and talents for the benefit of their parish and the Diocese as a whole (e.g. involvement and service in the Framework for Collaboration).

6.1.4 Marriage and Family Life (Type 4 Team)

The Marriage and Family Life Team comprises up to 12 members (six married couples) and will probably develop further ‘sub - teams’ as its work progresses. The Marriage and Family Life Team

is concerned with all aspects of the vocation to matrimony. It seeks to develop a programme of marriage preparation with formed and trained catechists across the Diocese, with due attention to spiritual, theological and practical concerns. It also seeks to establish in a small number of regional centres advice on fertility awareness, and its clinical practice and support. The Team seeks to support marriage and family life in whatever ways it can devise, including in our schools and parishes. It helps the Diocese towards a renewed appreciation of the Church’s demanding yet beautiful vision of marriage and family life, as well as the call to chastity. It also considers the ongoing support of marriage and family life, assisting to develop parenting skills, the celebration of engagements and significant anniversaries, the creation of a happy and spiritual home life, the support of grandparents, retreats for families and married couples, the compilation of a handbook for marriage, etc. It also seeks to help those in marriage difficulties including information on nullity and the care of those who are divorced and remarried.

6.1.5 Ecclesial Movements (Type 3 Team)

This Team is formed of representatives of the ecclesial movements and communities present within the Diocese. The Team meets at least once or twice a year for prayer, discussion and mutual support, the promotion of their vocation, the sharing of information, the identification of current challenges and best responses, and the development of deeper mutual relationships with the Bishop and the Diocese.

6.1.6 Pastoral Workers and Pastoral Assistants (Type 3 Team)

This Team of Pastoral Workers and Assistants comprises all the pastoral workers and pastoral assistants in the Diocese, paid or voluntarily working within the parishes and pastoral areas (although not youth workers). Pastoral Workers are appointed in liaison with the Bishop and are given their canonical mandate and ecclesial mission by him. The Team meets at least once or twice a year for prayer, discussion and mutual support, the sharing of information, the identification of current challenges and best responses, and the development of good practice.

6.1.7 Consecrated Life (Type 3 Team)

This Team comprises representatives of all the institutes of religious and consecrated life in the Diocese, resident or working within the parishes and pastoral areas.
