    Join us in the heart of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park. We’re looking for an ordained Anglican, Methodist or URC minister who loves leading diverse, ecumenical worship, values pastoral care, and will enjoy connecting with rural and farming communities. Housing is provided in the village of Dent. This is a part-time role - Sundays plus two days.

    You’ll be part of a supportive team, serving across eight Anglican churches and four Methodist chapels, helping to grow faith and build community in this beautiful setting. Your role will include:

    • Leading Sunday worship (Holy Communion & Services of the Word)
    • Providing pastoral care across our parishes and chapels
    • Conducting baptisms, weddings, and funerals
    • Collaborating on outreach and special events

    We offer a warm welcome, a strong ecumenical spirit, and the chance to make a real difference in a rural setting.

    For an informal conversation, please contact Archdeacon Vernon Ross.
