Transformational Change Post as the priest-in-charge of Bestwood St Matthew with St Philip, Nottingham

We look to appoint a person with a passion for serving God in an estate setting who will:

  • revitalise and grow St Philip’s as a centre of worship and mission
  • partner in mission with foodbank, Eden team, and neighbouring clergy and lay leaders
  • explore and develop new planting opportunities within and beyond St Philip’s
  • possess an infectious love for Jesus, a mature faith, and well developed relational skills

In return you will:

  • be the first occupant in brand new build vicarage
  • have very supportive congregation and committed, prayerful colleagues to enjoy working alongside
  • join a deanery that is forging ahead with new forms of estate ministry
  • be part of a growing cohort of transformational change appointments to urban areas where mentoring and learning community participation will be provided
