House for Duty Priest

We are looking for an experienced and caring priest to lead the churches in our three villages of Ewhurst, Okewood Hill and Forest Green in this beautiful part of Surrey.

We seek a priest who will:

• bring a strong spiritual and pastoral lead to our committed and caring congregations in our enchanting rural setting
• lead a committed and vibrant local team, including a local priest, an OLM and an LLM alongside strong lay support
• embrace and further extend our variety of worshipping practices, both traditional and modern
• be keen to build on the good links with the local church school, and develop these further to attract the next generation into church

We’d love to hear from you if you:

• have an inspiring faith which will bring vision to a parish hungry for spiritual and numerical growth
• have a passion for the growth of the Church in its community and are comfortable with and wanting to be involved in village life
• are caring, supportive, open and approachable both with those in congregations and those who are not currently part of the church family.

This post offers a four-bedroomed house in Ewhurst in return for Sundays and two working weekdays.
