Ordained ministry
Sayer trained for Holy Orders at South East Institute for Theological Education, and was ordained in the Church of England as a deacon in 2007 and as a priest in 2008.[2] She served her curacy at St John the Evangelist's Church, St Leonards-on-Sea in the Diocese of Chichester as a non-stipendiary minister (ie unpaid and part-time) between 2007 and 2010.[3]
She then moved to the Diocese of Chelmsford, where she was team rector of the Parish of Becontree South from 2010 to 2016.[2] She was appointed to a newly created position in 2016 as "Turnaround Minister" for the Bradwell Area of the diocese.[4] She was tasked with assisting struggling parishes, and was also appointed non-stipendiary minister of St Margaret's, Woodham Mortimer and St Michael's, Woodham Walter.[1][3]
In July 2018, Sayer was announced as the next Archdeacon of Sherborne in the Diocese of Salisbury, in succession to Paul Taylor.[1] She was collated as archdeacon during a service at Sherborne Abbey on 25 November 2018.[4]
