St John’s and St James Churches

A new Linked Charge

We are seeking and praying for a priest to lead two growing and inclusive churches which serve our city centre and draw members both locally and from across the city and beyond.

We are looking for a person with a clear sense of call to minister with us and work alongside a full-time stipendiary curate.

They should be secure in a rhythm of prayer, an effective communicator, able to listen and to offer a generous welcome and hospitality to the diverse range of people who find their way too our doors, including students from Aberdeen’s two universities.
