House For Duty Priest, St Michael and All Angels, Westgate Common, Wakefield

We are looking for a House for Duty Priest (three days a week plus Sundays) for this vibrant and characterful church, with a growing congregation of all ages. St Michael's is in the Modern Catholic tradition, and serves a multicultural and busy parish in central Wakefield. It has a growing schools ministry, and works closely with Wakefield City of Sanctuary, a Refugee charity that works out of the St Michael's buildings. We are looking for a prayerful and inspiring priest who can maintain and build on these links while growing the discipleship of the congregation.

Attached are the Parish Profile, the Parish Brochure, the Person Specification, the Role Description and a Statement from the Bishop of Wakefield welcoming applications for the post.
