Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori has named the Ven. Richard I. Cluett as pastoral assistant to reorganizing dioceses. In this capacity, Archdeacon Cluett will report to Bishop Clay Matthews in the Presiding Bishop’s Office of Pastoral Development.
In this new position, Archdeacon Cluett, who was formerly archdeacon of the Diocese of Bethlehem (Pa.), will provide pastoral guidance and assistance to dioceses of The Episcopal Church who are in the process of reorganizing and reconstituting. His main office will be located at the Episcopal Church Center in New York City.
Prior to retirement in 2004, Archdeacon Cluett was responsible for the coordination and oversight of ministry and administration for the Diocese of Bethlehem. For 20 years he worked with parishes in planning, problem solving, and ministry development; with clergy in vocational and professional development; with persons in the ordination process; and with the diocesan staff, committees and boards that have responsibility for diocesan life and ministry. He also served as interim dean of the Cathedral Church of the Nativity in that diocese, diocesan chaplain to retired clergy and families, bishop’s representative for world mission, and is currently a conference leader and consultant for the CREDO Institute.
