We are prayerfully seeking an outgoing and collaborative priest with excellent people skills to help lead us into the next stage of our mission and ministry. Our Benefice consists of four rural parishes (six worshipping communities) in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty between Canterbury and Ashford.

We are looking for pioneering leaders with a passion for planting and growing a culturally and ethnically diverse church and the ability to share our vision and draw people to two new Intercultural Worshipping Communities. IWCs are missional church communities where people from different cultural and ethnic heritage deliberately interact with one another in order to deepen their understanding and experience of God and of each other.
