A Vacancy in See update from the Diocese of Chichester

From here:

The Vacancy in See Committee had a preliminary meeting on 1st October 2011, where we elected Mr Jeremy Taylor, former Diocesan Adviser for Education, as Vice-Chairman. Also at that meeting we put in motion the mechanics for drawing up two documents
Description of the Diocese
Statement of needs, which is divided into four areas
Mission/church growth
Teaching/ministry/vocations
Civil Society/ecumenical links
Governance/structures
The second meeting will take place on November 5th at Church House, when we will be discussing the two draft documents with a view of having them almost complete for the main meeting on November 24th when the committee will meet with the Archbishops’ and Prime Minister’s Appointments Secretaries.
Could I on behalf of all members of the Vacancy in See Committee thank those who have written in with their views.
The Venerable Douglas McKittrick
Chairman of the Vacancy in See Committee
