  • A Rector for the Benefice of Upper Itchen Benefice Profile September
    A Rector for The Benefice of Upper Itchen Beauworth, Bramdean, Cheriton, Hinton Ampner, Kilmeston and Tichborne Father God, Creator God, Source of life, enable our benefice to be an effective channel of your love Amen Benefice Profile September 2018 1 Welcome to this Benefice Profile and Role Description…and welcome to the Diocese of Winchester! At the heart of our life here is the desire to be always Living the Mission of Jesus. We are engaged in a strategic process to deliver a mission-shaped Diocese, in which parochial, pastoral and new forms of pioneering and radical ministry all flourish. Infused with God’s missionary Spirit we want three character traits to be clearly visible in how we live: . Passionate personal spirituality; . Pioneering faith communities; . Prophetic global citizens. The Diocese of Winchester is an exciting place to be right now. With a grant of £4.3m from the Strategic Development Fund, we are investing in missional projects across the diocese which are aimed at strategic growth for the common good. We pray that, if God is calling you to join us in his mission here, he will reveal this to you clearly as you consider this post. “From his fullness we have all received grace upon grace.” (John 1:16) www.winchester.anglican.org/resources-archive/?s=&resourcecategory=mission-action-planning Tim Dakin David Williams Bishop of Winchester Bishop of Basingstoke Alresford Deanery Close to the historic Cathedral city of Winchester we are a very rural deanery of five benefices and twenty-six churches with a rich diversity of tradition.
