The Parish of Hodder Valley has received encouraging news from the Diocese of Blackburn! As part of an investment of funds from the C of E Strategic Mission and Ministry Board the Diocese is now able to combine the duties of Rector of Hodder Valley with a diocesan post within the Parish Renewal Programme concentrating on rural priorities. The advertisements relating to the post have now been published on the Diocesan and C of E Pathways websites inviting applications. The parish continues to pray that someone will feel called to come and serve God and his Church here in the Hodder Valley.
