House for duty priest-in-charge of the Hemsby and Lound parishes

We have a deep desire for strong, faithful, spiritual and pastoral leadership after a long interregnum.

We can’t wait to welcome our new priest into the villages and wider communities; this is a wonderful place!

We are looking for:

• A man of prayer, rooted and grounded in the catholic tradition of the Church of England.
• A priest who appreciates and delights in the beauty of holiness and will maintain and develop the sacramental life of the churches.
• A fellow-traveller who prays for and with us, to enrich our worship and its relevance to the everyday.
• Above all a pastor who is joyful and interested in people, committed to visiting and able both to lead us in faith, to support us in our daily lives, and to help us to bring new and younger people into the congregation.
• An engaging preacher and teacher and communicator of Gospel truth.
• Someone who will discern the talents of his people and encourage them in their lay ministry within the church and wider community.
• A person who enjoys the countryside and understands village life, and will be able to tune in to the local culture and environment, who understands the advantages of good administration and communication, and of being seen in the parish
• Someone with good organisational and team working skills
• A priest who can build on existing relationships with Hemsby School, and someone who is experienced with youth work
