The Blackthorn Chase Benefice in North Buckinghamshire will be a new rural benefice. It is being created from four parishes east of Buckingham town. This is a wonderful opportunity for someone seeking an exciting challenge.  

We are seeking an experienced priest to serve in this parish, which lies to the north of Brentwood Town Centre. The parish has a reputation for welcome and engagement with the wider community and is seeking someone to enable them to share the gospel with their growing population.

This recently-created benefice of three parishes (five churches) straddles the edge of the London conurbation and the beautiful south-west Essex countryside and offers an able and energetic missional priest the opportunity to develop collaborative and creative Christian engagement across the Benefice. Christ-focused and Spirit-filled, the new Team Rector will lead a committed clergy/lay Team as, together, the churches reach out to serve a wonderfully diverse range of communities.

wishes to appoint a re-defined Deputy Director position with responsibility for the RSCM’s education programme.
