The Acting Bishop of Durham is looking to appoint a Priest-in-Charge of St John’s Birtley and St Andrew’s Lamesley.
This is an exciting opportunity to come and serve in a new grouping who are looking forward to working together in mission.
Nestling under the shadow of the Angel of the North, these parishes are ideally suited to a mission minded priest who can lead with enthusiasm and vision with a willing group of parishioners.
We are looking to appoint someone who will lead these small but growing congregations who are ready to grow further – could God be calling you here?
