This is an exciting time to be joining Peterborough Diocese and the church of St Alban the Martyr, Northampton. The diocese is praying, dreaming, consulting and planning about the way ahead for our mission and ministry. There are plenty of challenges but also many wonderful blessings and opportunities. God is good and we are confident that our future is in his hands.
We are looking forward to welcoming a new incumbent who believes they have the vision and enthusiasm to respond prayerfully to the needs of this single parish church and its community, and who will lead us in the challenge to continue God’s work in our diverse parish.
We are looking for someone who:
-
Will be adaptable in their approach to worship.
-
Has the skills and enthusiasm to build on our youth and children’s work.
-
Will continue to develop our ministry to the elderly and vulnerable.
-
Will be willing to explore and widen our links with the community as well as further develop our local ecumenical connections.
-
Is a good listener and communicator.
-
Is supportive of lay ministries and is keen to nurture and develop the congregation.
-
Has the leadership and management skills to inspire a team.
We look forward to hearing from you.
