Team Vicar, RYE

Introduction

Team Vicar (0.5) of Camber and East Guldeford in the Rye Team Ministry 

Camber is a coastal village in a beautiful area of East Sussex on the western edge of the Romney Marsh between Rye and Lydd. Camber it is a popular destination for tourists from all over Europe, in addition to a resident population of around 1,500.  

St Thomas Camber is an integrated complex, with a modern church and a well-maintained hall, which has been widely used by community groups.  The Vicarage is a detached four-bedroom house on the church site.

East Guldeford is a small nearby village in an agricultural area, in which St Mary’s Church is a Chapel of Ease.

Our two churches have small but enthusiastic and community-focussed congregations. They are also both supported by retired, PTO, clergy and the Team Rector.

We seek a caring and supportive priest to enrich our worship and reach out to the local community, and to holiday makers in the summer months.  Although primarily based in Camber, s/he would be expected to minister across the Rye Team.
