CWMBRAN MINISTRY AREA

Location:

Wales

Recruiter:

Monmouth Diocese

Ref: JN013963

Is God calling you to join our team as our next Ministry Area Leader?

We are a group of seven churches led by three Vicars, two Curates, two Lay Ministers and a dedicated team of laity.

Cwmbran Ministry Area is a blend of rural and urban, encircling the town. Each of our churches is a living, breathing part of its neighbourhood. Together, we carry light into the communities we serve. Yet we recognise that to flourish more deeply as one body, we must strengthen the structures that hold us.

We pray for a leader who is:

Collaborative and team-focused
Inspirational and encouraging
Strategic and forward-looking
Warm and wise in communication
Visible and community-minded

We believe now is the time to embrace the future. A time to step into growth—spiritual, missional, and numerical—with renewed unity and hope.

We are striving to be an inclusive diocese and would welcome applications from all suitably qualified clerics.
