We are looking for an enthusiastic, missional Rector with a pastoral heart, who is a good faithful Bible teacher. They will reach out into the community and have a commitment to working with children and families and raising up new leaders.

The Benefice straddles the A10 about 8 miles north of Hertford and Ware, and midway between London and Cambridge, each about 25 miles away.

What we expect of you:

• Biblical teaching, relating this to people’s everyday activities
• Leading with authority, working collaboratively with existing leaders, whilst discerning the gifts of others and helping them to develop
• A missionary spirit
• Supportive of our strong music ministry
• Encourage discipleship of all church family members, developing house groups, training courses and study groups
• Ready to socialise with us, laugh with us and love us.
