Come and join us on the Gosport peninsula. We seek a vicar who will lead us in our distinctively sacramental, socially inclusive, incarnational ministry, involving varied forms of worship and outreach, within a diverse parish.
You will help to guide a strong team of paid staff and volunteers, ordained and lay, and will have the vision and drive to support people on their journeys as disciples of Jesus Christ.
We’ve been blessed with growth – people are coming through our doors and we’re building a fantastic community around the café, toddler groups, and family services. What we need now is a priest to help us grow in spirituality and discipleship; someone who can deepen our sacramental life, connect our worship more intentionally to our service, and walk with people on their journey of faith. We’ve created the welcome – now we need to nurture the roots.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR A LEADER WHO...
* Has a heart for both traditional Anglican worship along with innovative family ministry.
* Can lead and develop ministry across two distinct but connected communities
* Demonstrates pastoral care for a wide community facing economic pressures
* Will build upon our successful community engagement programmes
* Can work collaboratively with volunteers and community partners
* Understands the challenges facing working families in today’s economy
* Has vision for sustainable church growth whilst maintaining our community focus
This role offers an opportunity to lead two thriving churches with complementary ministries, serving communities that represent both traditional Anglican heritage and contemporary family-focused outreach.
Deadline for applications is Friday 23rd January, and the interviews for this post will be held on Wednesday 25th and Thursday 26th February 2026.
