Mandated Ministry Roles

These are new leadership roles open to men and women, deacons and religious, in parishes where a priest is not resident.  These roles will vary depending on the local circumstances, and will be either paid or non-stipendiary, part-time or full time.

We are open to and seeking interest from a broad range of backgrounds, as long as you have:

A strongly rooted faith with a good understanding of Catholic teaching

A knack for organisation and juggling priorities

Strong people skills with tact and diplomacy

A desire to help your local church flourish
