The Acting Bishop of Durham invites applications for the position of Priest-in-Charge to serve in the parish of St Stephen’s, Lawe Top.

 

This is an exciting, one church post in the lively coastal town of South Shields in the Diocese of Durham.

 

St. Stephen’s has a desire to be a church that creates disciples who share the love of God in Jesus Christ with South Shields.

 

There is an active and colourful community and who would love to see people in the parish encounter God and join in with what he’s doing in South Shields.

 

The church is searching for an enthusiastic and energetic new Priest-in-Charge who loves Scripture, will encourage them to grow as disciples, and help them reach out to young people and families in the community.

 

The post is under Common Tenure and is funded 50/50 by the Durham Diocese Board of Finance and the Diocese of Durham Transformation grant from the Strategic Mission and Ministry Investment Board.
