We are eager to find our new Rector who will…
• Welcome working alongside our enthusiastic and experienced PCCs and our Lay Minister, in our three beautiful, diverse, well-loved and well-maintained churches
• Be compassionate and creative, encouraging us in our worship and our outreach, whilst respecting our traditions
• Bring an understanding of the challenges and opportunities of rural life
• Welcome people of all ages, and enjoy working with children and young people and building on the good links with our schools
• Welcome living in these beautiful villages, which are quiet yet close to the M40 and to Oxford, and engaging with all three village communities
