About: Bishop to the Forces

An Entity of Type: Person100007846, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Anglican church in the British Armed Forces falls under the jurisdiction of the Archbishop of Canterbury; however, for all practical purposes the function is performed by the Bishop to the Forces. His full title is "The Archbishop of Canterbury's Episcopal Representative to the Armed Forces". The Bishop to the Forces is not a military chaplain. The Bishop always sits in the Church's House of Bishops and (therefore) General Synod; from 2014 to 2021, this fact was utilised to give the Bishop at Lambeth (the Archbishop of Canterbury's episcopal chief of staff) a seat on both.

  • Der Bishop of the Forces, Bischof für die Streitkräfte, ist für die Betreuung der anglikanischen Gläubigen in den Britischen Streitkräften zuständig. Da eigentlich der Erzbischof von Canterbury für die Streitkräfte zuständig ist, lautet sein vollständiger Titel The Archbishop of Canterbury’s Episcopal Representative to the Armed Forces, „Der bischöfliche Vertreter des Erzbischofs von Canterbury für die Streitkräfte“. Hauptgrund für das Amt sind die zahlreichen anderen Aufgaben des Erzbischofs von Canterbury. Der Bishop to the Forces ist immer Mitglied des House of Bishops und daraus folgend der General Synod. Von 2014 bis 2021 wurde diese Tatsache genutzt, um dem Bishop at Lambeth, dem bischöflichen Stabschef des Erzbischofs von Canterbury, einen Sitz in beiden Gremien zu geben. Der Titel des römisch-katholischen Militärbischofs lautet Bishop of the Forces. Normalerweise wird dieser, um Verwechslungen zu vermeiden, mit „The Roman Catholic Bishop of the Forces“ angesprochen.

There is sometimes confusion between the (Anglican) "Bishop to the Forces" and the (Roman Catholic) "Bishop of the Forces": for this reason the latter is normally given his title in full, i.e. "The Roman Catholic Bishop of the Forces".
