Team Rector

Trinity & St Paul’s

Cheltenham

Trinity is a large, vibrant, charismatic evangelical Anglican church working in close partnership with St Paul’s, as two distinct churches with a shared spiritual DNA and missional vision. The churches are diverse, multi-generational and growing, with a wide reach. The Bishop, Patronage Board and PCCs are looking to appoint an exceptional and experienced candidate to be the senior leader at Trinity and to oversee the Team Ministry and large staff team.

The next Team Rector will be a man or woman who:

• Is passionate about Jesus and making disciples & loves God’s word and presence
• Is a wise, mature, courageous and humble leader of leaders and familiar with the dynamics and challenges of leading a large church
• Can lead in discerning fresh vision and strategy for a new season of growth and can steward healthy church culture which is Spirit-filled, creative and safe
• Is an excellent communicator and has significant experience of leading ministry in the power of the Spirit
• Will contribute to the life of the Diocese and Deanery

There will be an opportunity to find out more about the Team Rector post at Trinity and St Paul’s in a webinar being held on Thursday 20 August at 5.30pm, with some of the people involved in making the appointment.
