The Bishop of Reading is looking for a colleague in the Reading Episcopal Area who has a cool, clear head and a compassionate heart; an eye for detail and a broad perspective; and an ability to work collaboratively and decisively, to share with her and the Archdeacon of Berkshire in the spiritual and practical leadership of God’s people in this vibrant part of the Thames Valley.

We are seeking an enthusiastic leader, deeply committed to the work of mission and outreach, to work with us and among us for the development of our parishes. We have a flourishing team of lay leaders and associate clergy and we embrace many different forms of worship, not all of which take place in church.

Are you the person whom God is calling to inspire, lead and nurture us, enabling us to reach out in love, grow in faith and serve God’s people, here in South Lanarkshire?  

We wish to appoint a priest colleague with energy and broad intellectual interests, who enjoys working with colleagues and a wide range of volunteers and partner institutions.
