The Revd Canon Liz Hassall has accepted the Archbishop of York’s invitation to be Acting Archdeacon of York, following the departure of the Ven Sam Rushton at the end of March to take up a new post in the Diocese of Lichfield.
Archbishop Stephen has invited Canon Liz to hold the responsibilities of the Archdeacon while the process of reviewing the job description and making a new permanent appointment is underway.
Canon Liz Hassall is Rector of the York City Centre churches, Associate Area Dean of York and currently one of the clergy elected to represent the Diocese of York in the Church of England’s General Synod.
