Office Holder

The parish consists of two churches around Charlbury, a picturesque town within the Cotswolds AONB (www.charlbury.info). We seek a new Vicar who can help us move forward with the solid foundation that our Parish offers.

We are looking for someone who can:

  • Strengthen us in fellowship as well as our knowledge and understanding of the Christian faith;
  • Lead us in growing, both in numbers and in the depth of our worship, prayer, and the living out of our beliefs;
  • Join us in being an integral part of the varied life of the town; and
  • Help us to build on the relationships we have established through various outreach initiatives.

What we can offer:

  • Regular, good-sized congregations, but with significant opportunities for growth;
  • A strong core of active members who are keen to support our new Vicar;
  • A well-appointed vicarage with four bedrooms with a good local Primary School and secondary schools in nearby towns;
  • Excellent administrative help; and
  • Financial soundness.
