Deddington Benefice (the villages of Deddington, Clifton, Hempton and the Barfords)

This welcoming, rural benefice consists of four worship centres in two parishes both with active, enthusiastic PCCs. We offer a 4-bedroom vicarage in Deddington, which has a good primary school, many shops and amenities with good transport links to the rest of the country.

We are praying for a vicar who will:

• Encourage discipleship, inclusivity and spiritual growth.
• Preach with sensitivity, flexibility and intelligence.
• Invigorate teaching across the generations, including in our C of E school.
• Encourage action on environmental matters.
• Celebrate our musical and liturgical heritage.

For an informal discussion, please contact The Venerable David Tyler, Archdeacon of Dorchester, on 07961 726403 or email him at archdeacon.dorchester@oxford.anglican.org.
