Clergy Vacancies


Priest in Charge of Battyeford Christ the King (0.7 FTE) and Lecturer & Tutor

This is a unique opportunity for a priest committed to parish ministry and theological education, to serve as priest in charge of a vibrant parish and as a lecturer & tutor in a college forming ordinands and others for Christian Ministry. Christ the King Battyeford seeks a new parish priest to lead us as we seek to grow in numbers, in spiritual commitment to God and in service to the local community. The adjacent College of the Resurrection is unique in being the only Anglican Theological institute founded by and living in close proximity to a monastic community, the Community of the Resurrection.


Incumbent of Marsden and Slaithwaite with East Scammonden

Marsden and Slaithwaite parishes offer a wonderful opportunity for a priest to lead and pastor its congregations amid wonderful communities, surrounded by beautiful scenery in Pennine Yorkshire. Building on the work done in the past six years of Interim Ministry, the parishes are focusing outward to their communities and growing in confidence and impact as God’s people here. As the next vicar, you will bring passion and skill in community engagement and congregational growth, in developing and deepening discipleship, and in encouraging stewardship and outreach. You will work collaboratively with lay leaders in the parishes, and with schools and community organisations. You will be blessed with the support of congregations that have a willingness to grow and develop, with excellent deanery colleagues, and with diocesan resource teams who are ready and willing to help. Informal conversation about the post can be arranged with the Archdeacon, Ven Bill Braviner. To arrange this, please email archdeacon.halifax@leeds.anglican.org
