The parishes of Bishop Monkton and Burton Leonard are looking for an enthusiastic and inspiring priest to lead them in developing their mission and ministry. These delightful North Yorkshire villages are situated between Ripon and Harrogate, and form part of the Ripon Cathedral Benefice, of which the Dean of Ripon is the incumbent. These are busy villages, each with a Church school, and the congregations are looking forward to enabling their priest to make best use of his or her time engaging with the communities, and being innovative, imaginative and creative in helping the parishes grow and move forward.
