Remuneration: Scottish Episcopal Church Clergy Standard Stipend

We are seeking a priest, rooted in the sacramental life of the Church, to be the next Rector of St Andrew’s Scottish Episcopal Church. Someone who will come alongside us in our next season of mission and ministry in Kelso and the surrounding community, and who will inspire us in our vision for the future, bringing a fresh outlook on how we continue to take the gospel ‘off the page’ and put it into real life.

We are a healthy and growing congregation that values the importance of offering a warm welcome to all, expressed through our liturgy, our hospitality and our care for one another.

Might God be calling you to lead St Andrew’s?
