Published: Wednesday September 16, 2026

The Bishop of Gloucester seeks to appoint an Associate Priest to this exciting new role sharing in ministry across this beautiful and varied Benefice and encouraging a focus on work with children and families.

This is a House and Half Stipend post (Sunday plus 3 days). We are praying for a priest who will:

  • Enjoy the variety of this area (with new housing, large and small villages, with creative opportunities and traditional rhythms)
  • Work with lay and ordained colleagues to reach out to children and their families, schools and communities in new ways
  • Thrive in being a collaborative leader in the Benefice and wider Deanery

Interested?

For an informal discussion please call, The Ven Katrina Scott, Archdeacon of Cheltenham on 07484 967570

The Diocese of Gloucester is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. All volunteers are expected to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to acceptable pre-appointment checks, including a satisfactory Enhanced DBS check.
