0.5 Pioneer Priest for the Hartland Coast Mission Community
Closing date for applications: 12:00pm on 21st November 2025
Interview date:9-10 December 2025
We are nine rural parishes looking for a pioneer priest.
If you’ve been trained in pioneer ministry, then we want to hear how that has helped you bring people closer to Christ and become believers.
You’ll be working alongside our established Ministry Team to support our existing outreach and create new opportunities to practically express God’s love for this part of Devon.
We’ve got locals and new comers, young farmers and old timers, cake bakers and coffee drinkers, dog walkers and coast path explorers, so you’ll need a heart for rural mission and be ready to get stuck in with all the things that are going on in this part of the world.
Here is challenge, choice and opportunity.
