The welcome of a new priest is a time of great celebration for the Church. It is an opportunity to give thanks to God for the many ways ministry and mission unfold in this community.
Orders of Service![Congregation at Bury parish church](/content/pages/uploaded_images/Julian_Heaton_Bury_Rector_Installation236_sm.jpg)
Orders of service are available here for use in the licensing of chaplains, incumbents, priests-in-charge or team vicars. They will generally be used by Area Deans or those in parishes arranging a licensing service for new clergy. Guidance notes are included at the end of each document. Each service outline is adapted to the circumstances of a licensing, institution or collation (i.e. where the patron is the Bishop).
