We are a family of five Churches serving beautiful villages just south of Peterborough, in the Diocese of Ely.

- Is at ease with the wider role in the community which is required of a rural Rector,
- Is proactive and persuasive in sharing their faith and can enable us to gain confidence to do the same,
- Understands the imperative and breadth of parish mission and will lead and encourage others in outreach.
