Welcome to Pilsdon at Malling

https://www.facebook.com/pilsdonatmalling/

The Pilsdon at Malling Community is a Christian-based community which seeks to provide an environment where people can rebuild their lives after experiencing a crisis, whether sudden or progressive. We offer a safe home for those working through depression, alcoholism, addiction, divorce or bereavement. We also welcome people who wish to find time to reflect on their lives before making a change in direction or just want time out to live as part of a Community.
As a charity we rely on fundraising and donations to help keep us going.  Any amount you feel able to donate will help make a difference to the lives of our guests here at The Pilsdon at Malling Comminuty.

Community Member Vacancy

Would you like to be part of a working and caring community with a real purpose? If so, we are looking for new members. We are an ecumenical Christian charity that takes in, works with and encourages people recovering from crisis’ in their lives. And we live in an old monastery on the outskirts of a beautiful Kent village, looking after a six-acre smallholding.

Community Members, led by the Guardian, make up the core team who together take responsibility for maintaining the Christian ethos and managing the property. We live alongside our volunteers, guests, visitors and occasional wayfarers.

You will need good practical and pastoral skills. All members take part in the day-to-day running of the community. Our work includes cooking, cleaning, gardening, looking after livestock and helping in the office. A Community Member also acts as a support / link to a number of resident guests. Above all, we look for the qualities of Christian commitment, resilience, trustworthiness, kindness and compassion.

For further information, please contact the Revd James McKeran at  guardian@pilsdonatmalling.org.uk or phone for a chat on 01732 870279.
