The Diocesan and Deanery vision is for a new Team Ministry with our 2 churches combining with the 2 Hadleigh Parish churches, St. James-the-Less (SS7 2PA) and St. Barnabas (SS7 2EJ). The Hadleigh Parish also has a vacancy and the to-be appointed Team Rector Designate at St. James will be the head of the Team Ministry, assisted by a focal minister at St. Barnabas. The Team Vicar Designate will be at our parish, assisted by our Curate. Not everything we do, or wish to do, can be covered in this profile. If you have what we need and you can lead us to greater things then we would be happy to talk to you, informally, about any questions you might have. Overview: Thundersley is in Castle Point in SE Essex, close to the Thames Estuary. The Parish of Thundersley has 2 churches, 2 miles apart, overseen by one PCC. Our churchmanship is Central. We are committed to the Diocese’s and Deanery’s vision (pages 6, 7 & 8) and to realise that vision here we need a Priest who will inspire us to grow this parish and who can operate within a Team Ministry.
