St Joseph’s is currently in a period of vacancy, and we are prayerfully discerning the minister God is preparing for our next chapter. If you are exploring where God may be calling you to serve within the Anglican tradition, we warmly invite you to learn more about our church and parish.

​

Who We Are

St Joseph’s is a welcoming, community‑rooted church within the Penn Fields parish. Our worship is centred on prayer, Scripture, and gathering as a church family. The congregation is supportive, resilient, and committed to growing in faith and serving our local community.

​

What We Hope For in Our Next Minister

We are praying for someone who:

• Brings imagination, vision, and enthusiasm

• Has a pastoral heart, strong interpersonal skills, and the ability to empathise with people

• Encourages the gifts and ministries within the congregation

• Helps people grow and build on what has already been achieved

• Has a passion for families, children, and youth

• Teaches and preaches in a Bible‑based, accessible way

• Is attentive to the guiding of the Holy Spirit

• Keeps prayer at the centre of their ministry

​
