Vicar (House for Duty) of St Mary the Virgin South Benfleet

St Mary’s is a beautiful Grade 1 Listed Church, which has been a faithful Christian presence since Anglo-Saxon times. It is situated in the South Benfleet conservation area, and has excellent train and road links towards London and the Essex Coast.

Do you feel called to:

• help to nurture our congregation in the Anglo Catholic tradition
• give us fresh insight and materials to help guide the study of Scripture
• help us give pastoral care and support to those seeking advice and counselling within the parish
• help us build upon the relationships we have with local schools through events, fellowship and friendship

We would love our new priest to lead our worship in a clear direction, to spread the word of our Lord to the new generation, encouraging the wider community to worship at St Mary’s.

St Mary’s has passed a Resolution under the House of Bishops’ Declaration.

Closing date: 19^th May 2025

Interviews: 19^th June 2025

This vacancy in the Diocese of Canterbury is now being advertised and my prayer is that a priest with sacrificial and evangelistic zeal for the Gospel, pastoral love for his people and confidence in their liturgical and sacramental ministry will respond to this call with joy!
