My name is Paul Mooney and I am currently the Vicar for the English Mission at Seoul Anglican Cathedral, Seoul, Korea. I have recently been appointed Dean of St. Edan's Cathedral in the Diocese of Ferns in Ireland and I will be returning to Ireland to take up that position in early July this year.
Consequently, the English speaking congregation at Seoul Anglican Cathedral is beginning the process of searching for a new vicar to serve a multinational English speaking congregation of about one hundred people.
Basically the need is for a mission minded pastorally oriented priest who would be happy to serve in a vibrant urban setting with a supportive and very friendly congregation. The position is funded from the resources of the English mission and pays slightly over US $3,000 per month (42 million South Korean Won annually) with free housing in a three-bedroom apartment located 25 minutes walk from the Cathedral, and Korean national medical insurance.
The English Mission is attached to the Cathedral but is a separate congregation directly under the Bishop of Seoul and is celebrating 120 years of its work here in Korea this year. If there is any way you can assist with advertising or recommending the position to possible candidates, please let us know and we will be happy to supply you with any extra information or documentation.
Yours sincerely,
Paul G. Mooney
