St Peter’s Church is praying for a new vicar who will join us in bringing the gospel of God’s love and redemption to the people of Parr, situated in the deanery of St Helens in the diocese of Liverpool. St Helens lies mid-way between Liverpool and Manchester and is surrounded by two major roads – the A58 and the A580, along with the motorways M6, M62 and M57, giving good links to two international airports, several universities and teaching hospitals.
We are an evangelical church with an outreach ministry to people of all ages and stages in our low-income community. Our regular activities include a toddler group, coffee mornings, free hot refreshments, and we have good links with local schools and care homes.
Our beautifully re-ordered church building is a focal point for local heritage interest, as well as a flexible space. Our worship is structured without being overly informal – we do, however, robe for communion and pastoral services.
We are looking for a vicar who will:
- Work alongside us, to develop and direct the gifts of the whole congregation, and deepen our Christian discipleship;
- Be a catalyst for our mission to the community, interested in people of all-ages, and able to nurture growth in our church.
- Offer pastoral ministry within the church family
For an informal conversation, contact Archdeacon Simon Fisher: simon.fisher@liverpool.anglican.org

To support the delivery of environmental sustainability and resilience objectives across the Diocese, including carbon reduction, helping churches and other stakeholders move from vision and assessment through to funded and delivered projects.
Context and Project Overview
Following the 2020 General Synod motion to commit to a plan toward being net zero by 2030 the Diocese of Liverpool began its net zero carbon journey by engaging in a programme that was designed to assist our churches, cathedral, diocesan offices, schools, properties and buildings to reduce their carbon footprint. Our programme was evaluated as positive and pioneering in 2025 and has now entered a new phase that requires a project manager and technical lead who can navigate the existing programme toward an integrated alignment with our national church funded Development Investment Programme.

Liverpool Diocese shares the Church of England’s ambition to grow a church that is younger and more diverse. An investment by the National Church now enables Liverpool Diocese to form Youth and Children’s Hubs in every deanery. It is a very exciting opportunity. From a low base, our objective is to see significant growth in the number of children and young people encountering Jesus, becoming embedded in a discipleship journey in church communities, and going on to explore their vocation, including ministry leadership in some capacity.
A Youth and Children’s Hub is a new concept which seeks to create a joined up, supported plan in deaneries to ensure that there is opportunity for children, young people and their families to access discipleship, worship and faith communities in a range of styles, places and times, it is not based on just one specific location or building. This Hub will provide opportunity for all of the churches in St Helens Deanery to be part of the planning and delivery to ensure there are engagement opportunities in reach of every child and young person in the area. The Hub will be delivered through the structures of the Larger Single Parish in St Helens – Church St Helens which is made up of 11 churches.
