We are delighted to be a broad Church, and our mission is to be open and inclusive serving the people in our community.

Our Church is Grade II listed, built in 1859, and is in good order.

The Parish, Patron and Bishop are prayerfully seeking a priest, who has the vision, enthusiasm, and communication skills necessary to work collaboratively with the congregation and across the community and Diocese and will be:

  • approachable and compassionate.
  • who takes the sacraments seriously but not too formally, observing the present balance of contemporary and traditional forms of worship.
  • willing to respect and listen to other people’s points of view.
  • able to recognise what we have achieved and be enthusiastic to develop our Church further, encouraging us to try new things and help us develop and grow.
  • able to lead us. We have wonderful volunteers at Christ Church. We would like leadership from someone who will draw out our talents and encourage us.
  • with a sense of humour – that would be nice!

If you would like an informal conversation with the Archdeacon, please contact his PA at [email protected] to arrange a time for a conversation.

 

We aim to be a diverse and truly representative diocese, and particularly welcome applications from women and people of UKME/Global Majority Heritage.
