We need an enthusiastic, collaborative priest who can work with people of all ages by:

Caring and communicating.
Delegating and developing others.
Enabling the Ministry team and Wardens
Being visible and known.
With a sense of humour!

The parishes commit to work with their priest to achieve the vision by being:

Responsible for the fabric of the buildings
The ‘eyes and ears’ in each parish.
Confident to take on more responsibility.
Welcoming, friendly and not too demanding!
