- What type of priest are we looking for?_

We are looking for a priest whose defining characteristic is an overwhelming love for God and his children. A loving, caring, compassionate priest whose listening skills are as equally well developed as his/her speaking skills, and is a true team player. He/she loves the Anglican sacramental liturgies but is also open and supportive of other types of worship and at other times and with shared leadership. Love will be the foundation and evident in every part of worship; in the prayers, the homily, the music, regardless of the liturgy.

We are all aware of the difficulties churches everywhere are facing: closing churches, declining numbers and financial hardships. People are still seeking God. We want a priest who recognizes that this is God’s church, and that we have the hope the world is looking for. He/she will inspire others to realize what a wonderful, amazing God we serve.

No priest can do this alone and we are looking for one who will join our team; share leadership while focusing on supporting, serving and empowering all the saints to live out their calling within the church and in the wider world where they live and work. Equipping and mobilizing members called to be part of the pastoral team that is so important within the confines of an aging congregation will also be key to the health of the church. We are excited to meet the priest God has called to serve with us here at St. James and we look forward to the creation of the new loving relationship that will result.
