St George’s is a parish which stands in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England, which has passed a resolution in accordance with the House of Bishops’ Declaration on the Ministry of Bishops and Priests, requesting alternative Episcopal, sacramental and pastoral care.   The Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham has invited the Bishop of Beverley, who is also an Assistant Bishop in the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham to provide this care. St George’s is affiliated to The Society of St Wilfrid and St Hilda.  For many years the parish was served by Kelham Fathers and Brothers, and more recently by SSC priests.

The parish is situated in The Meadows, an inner city area of Nottingham near the River Trent and close to the centre of the City.

This new full time appointment recognises the many opportunities for growth in our diverse multi-cultural community with a strikingly young population, 61% at the last census being aged between 15 and 44, with 88% under 60.

We are seeking and praying for a missional Priest and Leader who will:

• Lead our people in Catholic worship with appropriate flexibility
• Nurture our Catholic faith, deepening our discipleship and sacramental life
• have a passion for our young parish community, enabling us to reconnect and grow new disciples
• be a networker, building relationships with partner churches and the wider community
• have a heart for the disadvantaged while helping us to show the love of God in word and deed to all

Closing date: 20 May 2018 / Discernment Process: 5 July 2018

The Bishop of Newcastle, in consultation with the Bishop of Beverley,

is seeking to appoint a

Priest in Charge for the parish of Seaton Hirst.

We are looking to appoint a priest of the Society of St Wilfrid and St Hilda for this large parish in the town of Ashington. The parish is longing for a priest who will:

• Make deeper connections between the worshipping communities and the very large number of people who look to the priest for the occasional offices;
• Be a visible presence within the communities of the parish, embracing local concerns and identifying partnership opportunities;
• Build on the nascent enthusiasm for mission and evangelism in the congregations and explore ways of encouraging young people in their faith development and engagement with the church;
• Engage with emerging plans for re-ordering and building on both church sites;
• Work to increase the opportunities for discipleship and ministry development within the parish;
• Continue to develop the good relationship between the parish and the local schools.

“There are opportunities on the horizon that could really make a difference to Ashington.” - Sir John Hall, Chair of Ashington Town Team

This is a Diocese committed to ‘growing church bringing hope.’
