News about Jo’s plans for the future We are very pleased that Jo has been offered a job with 'Rural Mission' as the director for their South West region. This is a 3-day/week role where she will be providing consulting advice to rural churches on mission, as well as nurturing other pioneers, and continuing her academic work. She will start on 1st June and we're really pleased for her as the job is a great fit. Jo will continue to act as a house-for-duty curate until either she finds another house-for-duty post or until Easter 2024. As such she will be working for us 2 days/week + Sundays. She will be in the parish on Wednesdays (school assembly day, staff meetings etc.) and Tuesdays. Much of this time will be in preparation for Sundays and school and family work, but also doing some pastoral work to complete her training. Please pray for her and the family and all this ministry. Thank you.
