We have an exciting opportunity to join the Senior Leadership Team of two churches, reaching and serving one Parish!
The successful candidate will share general duties of leadership and pastoral ministry with the Vicar at Christ Church, the Associate Minister (for Outreach & Evangelism), and the Minister in Charge at Emmanuel Church Tolworth.
This is a really exciting time to join our team, particularly with new opportunities for outreach and mission and our growing ministry with children, youth and young adults. The Associate Minister role can be shaped to some degree by the passion and gifts of the person appointed, but the role is likely to include:
- Playing a key role in helping to shape the priorities and way forward for the churches.
- Preaching & Teaching in both churches in the Parish.
- If ordained in the Church of England, sharing in the occasional offices (baptisms, weddings, funerals).
Depending on the gifts and passions of the successful candidate, the role could also involve overseeing sung worship/ music, overseeing small groups in the life of the church, ministry to youth and young adults or supporting our outreach and evangelism ministries.
