We have been advised of new dates for the advertising of the Pioneer Team Vicar role. This will now be advertised in the national church press on 9 and 16 January. Applications must be submitted by 17 February. The interview dates are: Wednesday 18 and Thursday 19 March. This is good as it is a bit earlier than previously advised. 

Please continue to pray for a successful outcome this time. Please continue to use our revised vacancy prayer.

Prayer during the vacancy

Gracious God, you are with us always.
We thank you for guiding us by your Spirit through our life together as church. 
We thank you for all those who serve in our Ministry Team and those carrying extra responsibilities during this time.
We pray that we may hear your voice in this time of vacancy; 
give us patience, vision and courage as we seek a new priest and as we seek to make Jesus known in our communities, 
so that all may flourish and grow, seeking God’s kingdom in the here and now.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.

Thank you.
