This is a unique and exciting opportunity to deepen and develop the work of Growing the Rural Church in the rural communities of North Devon!
Do you have a vision to proclaim the Gospel afresh in rural communities and to help rural churches grow and thrive? We are recruiting a new Rural Officer for beautiful North Devon. Could it be you? exeter.anglican.org/vacancie… @verenabreed @GtRCDevon @ArthurRankCent @churchjobsnet
To all our friends in rural church communities, have a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. We love sharing stories of how you are touching the remote corners of Devon (and beyond) with your faithful acts of service and sharing the love of God. See you in 2024! @CofEDevon
We're taking a moment to celebrate some of Devon's spectacular rural churches. It's overwhelming to think of the countless worshippers who have set foot in these special buildings throughout their long history.

#MentalHealth should be possible for all. These @churchofengland resources are a great starting place. They include daily reflections, liturgical and UKME resources, and so much more. Let’s help each other, remembering the power of prayer in the process.

During his Farewell Service at Exeter Cathedral the Bishop of Exeter, The Rt. Rev'd Robert Atwell gave his last sermon. He said, "I've come to know and love this county, and I treasure the many friendships I have made."

Great article by @BpJanMc about seeing pur church buildings through 'fresh eyes', so they 'point those who live in a rational, explained world to the one who is, in their very being, mystery, awe, and wonder.' @GtRCDevon @CofEDevon #openchurch #discoverchurches #heritage #faith
