Rector (Senior Minister), New Town & Lenah Valley Anglican

WANTED: An energetic, evangelistically-minded minister for Hobart’s northern suburbs

New Town and Lenah Valley are situated just north of the city of Hobart, Tasmania. These areas offer a blend of rich history, natural beauty, and suburban convenience, making it a unique and vibrant place to live and minister. Both suburbs are home to a diverse population, including young families, working professionals, migrants and older residents. The area presents opportunities for ministry and outreach, particularly in building relationships with schools, supporting local community services, and providing spaces for connection. With easy access to central Hobart, New Town and Lenah Valley are well-positioned for those who seek both urban convenience and natural surroundings. As a parish, we are excited to continue serving God’s mission in this dynamic and evolving region.

Our vision is to build a thriving, confident, and vibrant community of faith—a place where people of all ages can encounter the life-changing power of the gospel and grow in trust and love for Jesus Christ. The hope we have in Jesus, as revealed to us in the Scriptures, not only transforms our own lives but compels us to share God’s love with others, bringing light into our community and beyond. With a deep sense of purpose, we embrace our calling to pass on the new life we have in Christ—especially to younger generations and their families. We are committed to nurturing new believers, strengthening their faith, and equipping them to share the good news and serve those in need, so that together we can reflect God’s kingdom in the world.
