Chaplaincy Opportunities

We are looking for chaplains who are ‘inclusive’ in nature and ecumenical in spirit. They will become ‘temporary members of staff’ for at least one month but no longer than three months. They receive free dinner, bed and breakfast in return for some minimal duties.

The Library is host to clergy and laity of both sexes and from many traditions. It was Gladstone’s intention that St Deiniol’s should be an inclusive Christian community. We understand this to mean that all are welcome regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation or religious affiliation. The Chaplain would be expected to be at ease with this ‘inclusive’ ethos.

If the Chaplain is accompanied by his/her partner, the partner’s accommodation will be charged at our lowest rate which in 2008 is £25.00 per day or £175.00 per week for dinner, bed and breakfast. Lunch, drinks and other extras will be charged at our normal rates.

In addition, the Trustees are happy to allow chaplains to invite guests/children to stay at the same cost of £25.00 per day or £175.00 per week for dinner, bed and breakfast on condition that rooms are available and that the offer is not abused. Permission will be granted by the Warden or, in his absence, the Deputy Warden. All other meals, drinks and services will be charged at our normal rates and the Chaplain will be responsible for payment of these.
