The Church of EnglandThe Church of England is the supreme governing body of our church, and it's web site provides a huge resource for christian worship and prayer. It provides a direct link to The Archbishops of Canterbury and York, and much else. Our DioceseThe Church of England is part of the world wide Anglican Communion, historically centred on, but not controlled by, Canterbury. There are two provinces, Canterbury and York, each with its own Archbishop, Rowan Williams and John Sentamu respectively. There are forty four dioceses including Sodor and Man, the smallest, and The Diocese of Europe. Each diocese has its own diocesan Bishop, in Hereford it is Rt. Rev. Anthony Priddis, and Suffragan bishops who assist the Diocesan. In Hereford this is Rt. Rev. Michael Hooper, Bishop of Ludlow. Each diocese has a ‘mother church’ , the cathedral which is served by the Dean and a Chapter of Residentiary canons. The Very Rev. Michael Tavernor is the Dean of Hereford. Dioceses are divided into Deaneries each with a Rural Dean who coordinates deanery activities. We are in the deanery of Pontesbury, and Preb, Philip Harrett, vicar of Chirbury , is the Rural Dean. Pontesbury is the most northerly of the Deaneries in the Diocese.
