Rector

The Kingsbury Baxterley group of Churches are a single parish of five villages with five churches in the North Warwickshire countryside. The patrons and the Bishop of Birmingham are seeking a visionary, compassionate and enthusiastic priest to be the next incumbent. We are looking for a priest who will embrace the challenges and opportunities of rural ministry, and who is able to resource and equip our committed and faithful disciples to growth and deeper engagement with our local communities.

The ideal candidate will be:

• An energetic leader who will bring enthusiasm for life and laughter in our communities
• Able to communicate well with those who come to church and those who do not
• Be able to build up and strengthen our already vibrant ‘unity’ and treasure our ‘small’ congregations
• A collaborator with other parishes/schools/organisations in our Oversight Area.
