Congregations Looking for a Priest in Charge
If you may be interested or know of a clergy colleague who might be a good fit please contact Cn. Joanne Izzo
The affiliation of Grace, Pemberton/St. Martin’s in the Field, Lumberton is seeking a full-time priest in charge. They are two loving congregations that share one heart as disciples in Christ Jesus. Their locations provide the best of both worlds. They are located in a rural area with all the pleasures of town life and country charm of farms and yet are about 30 minutes from Center City Philadelphia. There is a rectory located on the property of St Martin’s.
St. John the Baptist in Linden is one of our more racially diverse congregations in the diocese. They are seeking a priest in charge. They launched a thrift store during covid to meet the needs of the surrounding community. There is a spacious rectory with a fence that separates the property from the church. The church is in excellent condition. The local middle school is directly across the street. They are a short distance from NYC.
INTERIMS NEEDED! There is a need for qualified interims in the diocese. If you may be interested in serving as an interim but do not have the training, Bishop French has indicated that the diocese will pay the cost of training. If you have further questions please contact Bishop French.
