  BBC - Comedy - The Vicar of Dibley
When their vicar passed away in the middle of a service, the inhabitants of the small Oxfordshire village of Dibley expected his replacement to be another old man with a beard, a Bible and bad breath.
The thoroughly modern, pop music-loving vicar is far from the only eccentric character in the village, however.
The Vicar Of Dibley was the brainchild of Richard Curtis, famous for penning the likes of Blackadder, Four Weddings And A Funeral and Love, Actually.

 Vicar-General (Catholic Encyclopedia) - BibleWiki
Owing to the dependence of the jurisdiction of the vicar on that of the bishop, it ceases or is impeded with the latter.
When, however, the vicar is acting in a special case as a strict delegate, he may even then finish the cause he had begun.
The jurisdiction of a vicar-general, according to most canonists, is of a class by itself between ordinary and delegated, and it may be called quasi-ordinary, because, on the one hand, it is connected with a certain office by legal enactment and, on the other, it is exercised not in his own, but another's name.

The diocesan bishop is the rector, and the priest representing the bishop is the vicar.
The term is derived from the Latin vicarius, "substitute." Historically, as early as the twelfth century in England, clergy known as vicars were appointed to act as substitutes or vicarious representatives of the bishop to serve congregations.
The use of terms such as vicar, priest in charge, and rector is not consistent in the dioceses of the Episcopal Church.

Last January we were fifteen short of congregations requesting vicars and by the end of March we had three more requesting vicars than we had Middlers to assign.
Obviously, if there are more congregations requesting than vicars to be assigned, these criteria are applied more tightly, and if there are more vicars than congregations requesting them, the criteria are applied more leniently.
Whether or not your congregation would be reassigned a vicar after dropping out would depend upon the kinds of congregations and supervising pastors asking for a vicar in that particular year.
