Blyth Valley Churches

Two benefices, in a new cluster, 15 very diverse and interesting parishes working together in one of the most beautiful and rural parts of Suffolk. We have 14 beautiful and much-loved churches, all listed buildings, and all, but the Hub Church of St Mary's Halesworth, located in lovely Suffolk villages. Each Church is supported by dedicated and hard-working Churchwardens and Parochial Church Councils of varying sizes.

​

We have allocated stipendiary staff of a Team Rector (and Priest in Charge), and a Team Vicar, and there are, in addition, six Associate Priests, one Assistant Curate, one Lay Reader and six Lay Elders.
