Welcome to St Mary’s Church.

We are a small, welcoming and friendly 12th Century church situated in Chickerell, just west of Weymouth in Dorset.

A stone’s throw from Chesil Beach on the Jurassic Coast.

Please see the contact page for details of who you can talk to about all aspects of our church family.

We are looking for a Team Rector – Radipole and Melcombe Regis with Chickerell

We serve a variety of contexts, over six churches, with two Team Vicars and a lively staff group. The Team Rector has responsibility for St Aldhelm’s and St Ann’s.

We are praying for a leader with a passion for evangelism, who believes in the power of the Holy Spirit to change lives.  Someone who will be a strategic thinker, an enabler of others, an able teacher and preacher, with a pastoral heart.

We offer growing congregations with a passion for every member ministry, colleagues with a commitment to people and place, a vibrant church centre at St Aldhelm’s and a modern, well-equipped rectory nearby. In Weymouth we are committed to community engagement, working across churches and to Eco church. The Radipole Team are not afraid to innovate, and have a special calling to work with children and young people, and across a town where there are challenges as well as opportunities.

Weymouth is a delightful town, located on the Jurassic Coast with good rail links to London.

For an informal discussion please contact Archdeacon of Sherborne, the Ven Penny Sayer on 01305 269074 or by email on adsherborne@salisbury.anglican.org

Closing date: Sunday 10th November

Visit and interview: Wednesday 27th & Thursday 28th November’
