The new Benefice of Aller, Curry Rivel, Drayton, Fivehead, Huish Episcopi cum Langport, High Ham with Low Ham, and Swell is seeking a Stipendiary Full time Priest in Charge
Our requirements are a bit different. We don’t need a Saint, we don’t require a Prophet, we’re not looking for a Martyr.
All we want is an ordinary Priest, who will:
- Lead us in the worship of the Lord, our God
- Comfort us in our difficulties and rejoice with us in our happiness
- Teach our children God’s Word
- And encourage our communities back into the embrace of a church they are forgetting.
If that sounds more like you, we can offer you:
- A stipendiary half time Associate minister and two Readers
- Lay administrative support
- Many members of the congregation willing to stand up and work alongside you
- Gorgeous countryside, culture in Bath and Bristol and an hourly fast train to London in 1hr 45mins.
