Kerrier House for Duty, Cornwall

Introduction

As well as stunning views of land, sea and sky, the Lizard Peninsula has a rich variety of flora and fauna. If you want to spend your days meeting fabulous people, sharing pasties, surrounded by many of God’s ‘thin places’, then this might be the post for you!

We are united as disciples and witnesses of our Lord Jesus Christ. With a team ministry and shared resources, we foster and develop the worship and work of our sixteen parishes. We seek to nurture our congregations, and to serve our communities, and to bring others to the knowledge and the love of God.

We are a small team working alongside may lay people, but we are passionate about seeing this Plan come to fruition. Kerrier’s Plan is radical, but one where we believe we can best serve our people within our congregations and in the wider community. We would love to welcome a priest who has a similar passion to work as part of a team and to bring more people into a loving relationship with Jesus.

For an informal discussion please contact the Strategic Rural Dean Heidi Huntley on email: heidiruraldean@gmail.com
