JOB POSTING: INCUMBENT, PARISH OF ST. AIDAN, MOOSE JAW

 

St. Aidan, Moose Jaw, in the Diocese of Qu’Appelle is seeking a new incumbent to partner with us in our life of worship, ministry, and mission.

 

We are a community in which parishioners feel a sense of belonging to a family–a family that extends and receives God's love. Our liturgy is at the heart of who we are and hope to become. In our teaching and evangelism we seek to further the catechesis model which focuses not so much on "what to do" but "who God is." As a diaconal parish St. Aidan recognizes the importance of our baptismal promises. This is borne out in the opportunities for parishioners of all ages to live out the gospel command to serve others.

 

In a parish discussion, one of the main stengths identified was that we make newcomers feel welcomed and part of the family. Another strength identified was that we have a strong liturgical sense where "preaching is scripture based" and "I know I am hearing and learning the Word of God."

 

Areas identified as needing further development include a clearer vision of mission and ministry and more Christian education opportunities. The pastoral care ministry is very active in the area of senior and hospital care but we would like to expand into other areas. Internal parish communication, stewardship, healing ministries, and children and youth ministries also need to be strengthened.

 

We are excited as we look to the future God is laying before us. If you feel you may be called to journey with us, please contact Bishop Gregory Kerr-Wilson, bishop of the Diocese of Qu'Appelle for further information, including a parish profile and diocesan levels of remuneration and benefits.

JOB POSTING: INCUMBENT – PARISH OF SASKATCHEWAN GATEWAY – DIOCESE OF QU’APPELLE

 

The Parish of Saskatchewan Gateway is looking for a full time Incumbent for an initial three year term with the hope of an extension. The parish has always had a strong lay leadership as well as a locally ordained priest and two retired clergy who assist as they are able. A parish profile is available upon request.

 

The Parish is located in South East Saskatchewan and is comprised of four congregations located in the communities of Moosomin, Rocanville, Fleming and Spring Creek. Services are also provided to the community of Maryfield. The geographical area is approximately 1000 square kilometers with the Manitoba border forming the east boundary, the Qu’Appelle valley the north boundary, Wapella to the west and Maryfield to the south.

 

The economy of the area is booming and supported by mixed farming, oil and gas exploration, large potash mining resources and government agencies with good medical and education facilities.

 

The candidate will be an enthusiastic, energetic person who will empower, inspire, nurture and equip the parish to continue to grow toward a self-sustaining ministry and this includes both a plan to increase finances as well as training and guiding others who may be interested in some form of lay leadership or local ordination process.
