HOUSE FOR DUTY PRIEST for Opportunity near March, Cambs.
Ely Diocese and the Benefice of Doddington with Benwick and Wimblington are seeking to appoint a House for Duty Priest to live in The Rectory at Doddington and work on Sunday and two other days.
The job will entail being a focus of ministry in this Fenland Rural Group of Churches and to work under the oversight of the Priest in Charge who is based in the neighbouring group of linked villages.
We are looking for a Priest who understands rural ministry and is willing to provide a church presence at the heart of these communities. We are anticipating that our Priest will be caring for our church members with a pastoral heart and also willing to share a vision for investing in ministry and a team approach to building and implementing a fresh vision for outreach and mission in community service. Specific areas of work will be determined according to gifting and time available in line with the benefice ministry priorities which we are seeking to develop as our new situation unfolds.
The benefice enjoys the ministry of a retired priest and a licensed lay minister as well as two ALMs and other lay ministry.
Our new Priest will need to show flexibility around churchmanship and be able to be sympathetic to a variety of views whilst at the same time valuing scripture and accepted church teaching.
This is a new opportunity that has come about by the linking of 2 clusters of three villages around the south and east of the town of March.
If you are interested in thinking about this appointment please feel free to talk to the Priest in Charge Rev. Kevin Fitzgibbon on 01354 680969 email k.fitzgibbon@care4free.net and call or email Archdeacon Hugh McCurdy 01353 658404 email archdeacon.handw@ely.anglican.org for a Parish Profile and Application Pack.
