Rector of Brayton Benefice and Area Dean of Selby Deanery
3 weeks ago
We, in Brayton and Thorpe Willoughby, are committed to enabling as many people as possible to discover and learn about the love of God by reaching into the community through evangelism and Christian service and by ensuring our church community is a welcoming place for all. We believe the time is right to spread the word and teachings of Christ in new ways, enabling our church to grow and flourish in God’s name. Inspire fresh thinking and new ideas to attract the local community by offering a balance of traditional and contemporary approaches to worship, with a range of musical provision and styles.
Grow the presence of young families by exploring ways to reach these children and young families through ‘Fresh Expressions’, and developing missional opportunities within the community, including our work in the local schools.
Reaffirm our mission to the parish by supporting our community through the pastoral care of our Lay Ministry Team, our Community Lunches, craft groups, Mother’s Union, and the distribution of our Parish Magazine, ‘Connected’. Sharing the mission as a joint venture through our Local Ecumenical Partnership with our Methodist friends.
Create flexibility in the church interior in St Wilfrid’s; particularly in making the interior warmer, more welcoming and flexible, and by developing the use of newly-installed audio-visual system to improve our sound and hearing loop and to facilitate projection and live streaming.
Continue to explore ways to develop the joint Anglican-Methodist church building in Thorpe Willoughby.
Services across both churches each Sunday, with a choice of genre, from traditional Communion, to Celtic Communion, Lay led morning prayer and café style ‘Fresh Expressions, though some are sadly suspended since our previous incumbent left.
Strong links with 2 C of E Primary Schools in Brayton and Barlow, with Longman’s Hill Community Primary, Thorpe Willoughby Primary and Brayton Academy.
A previously well established ‘Fresh Expressions’ ministry to children, young people and families, with the very informal Alive@5 service, Friday Fun Club, for pre-schoolers and carers, ‘The Zone’ youth group and ‘Refresh’ women’s bible study, suspended since key leaders moved away.
A church hall at St Wilfrid’s and a more flexible building and halls at St Francis’, used by the community as well as the church.
A strong tradition of music in our churches, enjoying both traditional and contemporary hymns and worship songs. St Wilfrid’s has a small but loyal choir who sing at Sunday services and festivals.
Inspire young families with the gospel and encourage us to find innovative ways to make the Gospel relevant to our community
Rejuvenate and create new fresh expressions of church to help us reach area of our community we are not in contact with.
Be a leader and facilitator, experienced in leading change and able to apply it to our church and community setting.
Find an appropriate balance of traditional and informal worship, whilst bringing the generations together in church as a worshipping community
Help us to reconsider the church interior of St Wilfrid’s to best use the building as a centre of mission and ministry in our community and continue the work to develop the church building in Thorpe Willoughby.
Brayton, and Thorpe Willoughby are both large semi-rural villages to the south of Selby. The area has good local amenities and transport links, plus the beautiful ancient woodland of Brayton Barff. Traditionally farming communities, the working population commute to employment in Selby, York and Leeds. Housing being more affordable than in many areas, the villages are popular with young families and there have been significant building developments over the past 10 years, with a population now of almost 10,000.
In recent years, significant housing development has taken place not only in and around these two larger population centres, but in a number of the other villages and looks likely to continue. Has a diverse experience of worshipping styles and able to relate to different church traditions across the Deanery.
Can identify local needs and the innovations required to make the most of the particular opportunities each local context affords.
Help to provide training and support for lay people in the parishes, both for those in existing roles and in developing new ministries, that is local, contextual and adaptable.
Streamline structures and provide more effective support for one another within and across parishes through pastoral re-organisation that reduces the number of PCCs and statutory roles and creates more opportunities for sharing ministries and training in discipleship.
as well as areas of deprivation in some of our urban and smaller rural and coastal communities.
Our diocesan teams provide a wide range of support services to our mission and ministry, including lifelong learning for ministry, the care of church buildings, and safeguarding. We want to be a simpler, bolder, humbler church which in its diversity reflects the communities it serves. We are bringing renewed focus and fresh energy to achieving our aims:
Transforming our finances and structures
Our approach is aligned with a commitment to the best of our parochial inheritance and to the poorest communities, and to the financial realities we face.
Under current immigration rules, it is not generally possible for us to appoint clergy who are not already eligible to work in the UK.
