Abstract:
The priests qualified for their priestly function in three main ways: being robed in the priestly vestments; being anointed; and undergoing the ceremony of the days of ordination. This article is intended to clarify the contribution of each of the three components of the procedure, but especially that of the ram of ordination. A semantic and literary analysis demonstrates that donning the vestments qualifies the priests to minister in the tabernacle; anointing them makes them ‘holy’; and the ram ceremony qualifies them to eat the sacrifices that are offered on the altar.

Abstract:
Starting from the change and development in the understanding of the presbyterate and the episcopate at the Second Vatican Council, the author introduces the liturgical understanding of ministerial priesthood based on a comparative analysis of the ceremonial rite for the ordination of priests. The ministry of presbyters and bishops must always be understood from their ministerial, that is, their communal relationship with one another as well as with God’s people. The author develops the given topic in three units: the discovery of the liturgical foundation of ministerial priesthood; the bishop and priest as ecclesial subjects in the light of the ordination of bishops and priests; according to the liturgical theology of communion: some indications for lex vivendi. Through the contextual and comparative analysis of ordination and with a special emphasis on the original euchological context, the author concludes the reflection by reading the distinctiveness of the correlation of priestly and bishop’s ministry, whose identity and communion is given and formed by the worship of the Church.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Church of England’s Ordination rites of the sixteenth and twentieth centuries are presented and interpreted as primary sources for the understanding of Priestly/presbyteral ministry in the Church of England today. These texts are supplemented by reference to other ‘official’ sources and to some classic nineteenth-century and more recent discussions. The article concludes with a definition of ministerial priesthood as a ‘sacred office’.

Abstract:
In early August 1942 an English Anglican missionary priest named Vivian Redlich met his death at the hands of the Japanese in Papua, then in the Anglican diocese of New Guinea. Redlich is one of a group of Papua New Guinea martyrs commemorated by the Anglican Church. I first heard his story when I joined the staff of his former theological college at Chichester, where he is remembered every year with a Eucharist at which an account of his martyrdom is liturgically read, and where he stands as a model of priestly dedication and sacrifice for those approaching ordination. I have prepared this paper to remember him on this fiftieth anniversary of his death, and in particular to set his story in the context of the earliest tradition of martyrology.

Abstract:
In 1935, the General Council of the Assemblies of God (USA) officially opened the pastorate to ‘matured women…who have developed in the ministry of the Word’. Today, the AG remains the only major conservative denomination to fully affirm female ordination. Unfortunately, this achievement remains largely ignored in contemporary scholarly literature, largely due to the influence of an article by Barfoot and Sheppard in 1980 which dismissed the AG’s official endorsement of clergywomen as having little lasting impact as the denomination matured into ‘priestly’ tranquility. In this article, I argue that such an interpretation is historically outdated. By extending Barfoot and Sheppard’s analysis of the General Council minutes to the present day, we find instead that significant progress has been made. Such a positive trend invites a reappraisal of the Assemblies of God’s scriptural hermeneutic underlying its enthusiastic endorsement of female ordination and also suggests cross-denominational application among similarly inerrantist denominations.

Abstract:
This article addresses the current state of ecclesiological dissonance in the Church of England and analyses the theological and pastoral issues that are at stake. It tackles the two ecclesiological anomalies that now face the church and compromise its received polity. (a) The College of Bishops includes bishops who are unable to recognise the priestly and episcopal orders of their female colleagues and are unable to be in full sacramental communion with them. This situation raises the question of the ecclesial integrity of the College of Bishops: is there now a single College? (b) Some bishops are unable in conscience to recognise the priestly ordination of some clergy – male as well as female – within their diocese because these clergy are female or have been ordained by a female bishop. Is it possible for the bishop, in that situation, to exercise a full episcopal ministry in relation to those female clergy? The article goes on to explore, by means of the concepts of reception, economy and charity, whether a modus vivendi is possible that would enable the Church of England to live with these two anomalies with theological integrity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of this paper is to explore the theme of Mary as 'type' of the Church, and to do so with a bifocal ecumenical perspective. The first section of this paper focuses on the persisting reasons for the Protestant critique of Mariology. Mary's ambiguous role as a model for virginity shifts the focus to the second section, which directs the gaze on Mary as a pattern for all believers, the one who typifies the Church's calling – to bring Christ into the world. Protestants are challenged to take seriously the theological logic underlying Marian devotion; Orthodox and Catholics are invited to consider Mary's priestly role and its implications for the ordination of women.

Abstract:
Should a person with same-sex attraction live chastely? Can a person with SSA live celibately? Should a person with SSA be ordained? Care has to be taken in asking such questions, remembering that the person with SSA should be treated fairly and with equality. We could also ask these questions of heterosexual persons. In line with current pronouncements of Church teaching, the priestly life appears unsuited for persons with deep-seated SSA. If the SSA is transitory or passing, and the candidate is open to be formed, then there may be no impediments to future ordination. Where the same-sex feelings lie somewhere in between, careful and prudent discernment (as for heterosexual candidates, too) is needed.

Full text
Abstract:
At a time when the Church of England was encouraging a greater variety of forms of professional ministry, but still retained selection criteria reflecting earlier organizational norms, my diocesan work with ordination candidates became a journey of exploration worth taking whatever the outcome. In this context, I collected rich life-story narratives using the Biographic-Narrative Interpretive Method, twenty-one of which later became the raw material for this study. As I began my research, I noticed in Michel Foucault's 1981-2 lectures at the College de France, published as The Hermeneutics of the Subject, significant correspondences between his concern with the relationship between the subject and truth, and the narratives of those with whom I had worked in the ministerial vocational context. I asked the central research question: Do these narratives of religious subjects show signs of a concern for the relationship between the subject and truth - of the subject progressively aligning itself with the truth that it thinks? I argued that, in spite of Foucault's assertion in his lectures that Western theology is fundamentally inimical to the survival of that 'spirituality' he sees as the progressive alignment of the self with truth, his extension of the term 'spiritual exercises' used by Pierre Hadot opens the way for a new theological appreciation of philosophy as a way of life. I found, by posing to the narrative material six questions designed to test the presence of 'spirituality' in the lives of ordination candidates, that the idea of the progressive alignment of the self with truth seemed to be alive and well in vocational theological discourse. This conclusion was reinforced at the institutional level by my discourse analysis of a vocational publication, Ministry in the Church of England. Having conducted semi-structured interviews with my subjects, which confirmed my findings further, I then discovered, in a detailed narrative analysis of all the interview material provided by four selected subjects, evidence for the self-constituting capability of narrative as a 'spiritual practice of the self'.

Abstract:
Bibliography: pages 407-418.
This thesis sets out to make a comprehensive study of the debate on the ordination of women to the priesthood in the Anglican Communion. This required, first and foremost, an historical examination of the development of the debate. Chapters 1-3 trace the movement of thought and attitude within the churches which make up the Communion, focusing particularly on the Church of the Province of Southern Africa, the Church of England, and the Episcopal Church of North America. A gradual shift in attitudes is revealed, away from grossly sexist understandings of women's roles in the church, and towards an acceptance that women have both the gifts and the calling for priesthood and indeed, for any role in the church. The next step after tracing the movement of attitudes in the past, was to examine the attitudes of the present. Chapter 4 contains the results of empirical research, undertaken in South Africa, on present-day attitudes and arguments in the debate. These, as might be expected, reveal a wide spectrum of opinion, from ultra-conservative stereotypes of women's role to an open acceptance of women occupying any role for which they have the gifts and abilities. Each response, of course, produced theological and scriptural evidence in its own support. Chapters 5 and 6, therefore, provide a biblical and theological evaluation of the evidence and arguments upon which these responses were based, both for and against the ordination of women to the priesthood. The biblical and theological evaluation revealed the crux of the thesis - namely, that the debate on the ordination of women to the priesthood is an integral part of the phenomenon of ecclesial and social sexism. The arguments of the opponents of women's ordination are invariably based on sexist modes of thought. At the same time, however, the arguments of the proponents of women's ordination are, to a large extent, influenced and. shaped by those same sexist modes of thought which they are attempting to address. For this reason the arguments in favour of women's ordination are unable to create a new theology in which the full humanity of Christian women as created in the image of God is a non-negotiable assumption; a theology in which therefore the priesthood, and women's participation in it takes on a new form closer to the revelation of the servant priesthood of Christ. Chapter 7 thus moves beyond the debate on women's ordination to an analysis of the structures and principles of sexism, and especially the manifestations of the sexism in past and present church history. It is only by the complete abolition of sexism in the churches that the true priesthood of both women and men can be achieved. In Chapter 8 the first tentative steps towards this goal are explored. It is obvious that the abolition of sexism in the churches must primarily take place through the self-liberation of Christian women and men from sexist patterns of thought and behaviour. Groups such as the Movement for the Ordination of Women in Britain can contribute much towards this end by their outreach to their members who in turn can communicate with fellow parishioners. In this way various groups may be started in the parishes, and house churches may be influenced in their teaching and thinking.

Abstract:
This chapter argues that the emergence of marriage as a symbol and its relation to marriage as ‘sacrament’ were connected to a third factor, namely the emergence of a ‘priestly’ identity for the Western clergy. Hunter shows first that a tradition developed in the third to the fifth centuries in which the single marriage of the clergy (i.e. the prohibition of digamists from ordination) became a privileged symbol of divine–human union, and eventually the union of Christ and the Church; second, that this tradition of single marriage was directly connected to the increased sacralizing of marriage in liturgical practice; and, third, that both of these developments contributed to the identification of the Western clergy as ‘priests’.

Abstract:
Wong Wai Ching Angela takes a closer look at the groundbreaking ordinations of the first five Anglican women priests in the Diocese of Hong Kong and Macau, originally a part of the CHSKH. She examines the controversy surrounding the debate of women’s ordination in the province before and after the war, tracing the roles of Bishop R. O. Hall and Bishop Gilbert Baker. This chapter highlights the “Chinese factor” that specially made the four first ordinations of the Anglican Communion possible. Wong argues that this distinctive Chinese contribution to women’s ordination in Hong Kong took place at an ambivalent crossroads, where cultural transition and the transformation from an English to a Chinese church, endowed with a Chinese reformist spirit of the time, met. The Chinese church decided to take the right opportunity at the right place at the right time and so made a distinctive decision in the Anglican Communion.

This chapter is a detailed historical reconstruction of her ordination and related events, drawing on letters and other documents written by Li Tim Oi and others that have not been used before.The ordination of Li Tim Oi helped start the process leading up to the ordination of women in the Anglican Communion. Her license to the priesthood was withdrawn, but four decades later wasrestored. She has been rightly hailed as a forerunner in the movement for women’s ordination.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter concerns the contradiction in modern Catholicism that women can be God-like but not priest-like. Drawing on research into the Roman Catholic Women Priest movement, it explores how this contradiction persists through the manipulation of metaphors of contagion and containment in relation to notions of sin and virtue. Just as the sins of the one couple (Adam and Eve) contaminate the many and for generations thereafter, the moral failures of any one individual, by analogy, can be applied metaphorically to all of humankind. Yet grace, too, can be contagious, spreading among persons (underlying certain Catholic models of religious practice). Problems arise when some people’s sins turn out to be more contagious than others. Through a mixture of ethnographic and historical sources, the discussion traces how sin and grace are differently containable or contagious according to gender. The infinite manipulability of this sin/grace complex helps to illuminate how opposition to the ordination of women remains institutionally entrenched even as male sex-abuser priests have come to dominate the media. The chapter concludes that Catholicism’s multiform problems with gender are reproduced via this politics of contagion and containment, and that radical repercussions are at stake in sin’s containment.

Abstract:
Candidates for ordination with homosexual tendencies The article presents the problem of canonical suitability for ordination of candidates with homosexual inclinations. Taking into account the state-ments of the Magisterium of the Church regarding the necessary qualifica-tions and moral virtues of future priests, the author asked a key question: Is it acceptable to admit a clergyman to the seminary and then to form persons showing certain disorders in the sphere of sexual orientation? Ac-cording to the author of the publication, due to the serious theological, psychological and juridical arguments, it should be assumed that their admission to the formation process in the seminary constitutes a serious risk which must not be ignored at all. And it is wicked to allow a candidate practicing homosexuality or showing deep-rooted homosexual tendencies or promoting the so-called „gay culture” to be ordained to the sacrament.

This brief history of indigenous spiritual authority in Mexico begins in 1513 with the arrival of the Spaniards and includes the argument that the conquest of Mexico resulted in the loss of indigenous spiritual authority through the defrocking of the Aztec priests and four centuries of indigenous exclusion from the Catholic clergy. The chapter contextualizes the search for indigenous identity and spiritual voice by recounting native responses to religious subjugation, including Indian rebellions, native prophets, bloody conflicts, and combinative religious practices through the nineteenth century. The arrival of Protestant and Mormon missionaries after the Civil War offered indigenous Mexican converts new avenues to ordination, education, and the development of leadership skills.

Abstract:
This chapter reveals the extent of Woolf’s critical interest in the clergy. It demonstrates that the clergy remained important within middle-class life during Woolf’s lifetime and that Woolf reflected this in her novels. It draws attention to the element of social criticism in Woolf’s novels The Voyage Out, Jacob’s Room, Mrs Dalloway, The Waves, The Years and Between the Acts, as she represents the variety of roles played by the clergy: the cure of souls, the conduct of worship, the burial of the dead, and conserving English heritage and historical buildings. The chapter also examines Woolf’s detailed critique in Three Guineas of the decision of the Church of England to continue to exclude women from ordination in the Church Commissioners’ 1936 report The Ministry of Women. It also shows that Woolf was supportive of women’s ministry, both in her examination of the historical precedent for this in Three Guineas, and in her representation of Mrs Ramsay in To the Lighthouse as a prototype female priest.
