Our Benefice seeks to share the love of Jesus Christ through Bible-centred teaching, worship, service, pastoral care, evangelism and community presence.
Our parishes are located in Shropshire. Lilleshall is a quiet village just north of Muxton, which is within the boundary of Telford. St Michael’s is a beautiful medieval church and St John’s a modern multi-purpose community building.
We are a diverse family of believers, within the Evangelical tradition, who value both authentic Anglican worship and contemporary, family-focused church life. The two parishes work closely together, sharing ministry,
leadership and pastoral care while maintaining their own distinct identities. We adopt a traditional stance on issues of living in love and faith.
We are looking for a servant-hearted Vicar, with a vision for church growth and community engagement, who will faithfully preach the gospel and provide spiritual leadership, pastoral care and missional direction.
All applicants should normally have 3 years experience in the Church of England or another Anglican church in the British Isles.
