Job Description:
Vicar of New Shoreham & Shoreham Beach
Deanery of Hove
St Mary de Haura is, in every way, at the centre of the lively seaside town of Shoreham-by-Sea. The magnificent Norman church is a significant landmark in the town, and the vicar has the opportunity to play a leading and high profile role across the whole parish.
The Church of the Good Shepherd on Shoreham Beach is ably looked after by the associate vicar and is also a vibrant worshipping community.
The Bishop of Chichester is looking for a priest who:
* Will lead mission through articulating the gospel with clarity and imagination and by building community;
* Has excellent liturgical skills and is adept at working with a very good choir;
* Can build on excellent foundations to continue attracting a wide spectrum of ages;
* Has the ability to lead a committed and able team of lay and ordained colleagues;
* Is a person of mature faith and good judgement, able to recognize and encourage the gifts of others;
* Has a settled and evident commitment to prayer and personal growth;
* Will bring pastoral sensitivity, great capacity for love, and generous wisdom.
This is a very exciting opportunity to lead a growing church at the heart of an interesting and diverse benefice.
Interview date: 3rd September or 1st August if possible.
