We are currently seeking to recruit an exceptional individual in the following area of our mission and ministry...
0-18s Ministry Volunteer Intern (Youth)
Christchurch Baptist Church is a thriving church in the centre of the historic coastal town of Christchurch. We're looking to recruit an enthusiastic individual as our 0-18s Ministry Volunteer Intern (Youth). We're offering an opportunity for the successful applicant to grow as a disciple of Jesus and as a leader. As volunteer intern, you will help the church continue to develop our youth ministry in partnership with our 0-18s Ministry Lead and a team of volunteers. In addition to regular line management from our 0-18s Ministry Lead, you will be given a mentor to help you reflect on your experience, growth and challenges; and it’s expected you will enrol on a placement-based theological training course with a partner provider (e.g. Moorlands Flexible Learning programme), to better equip you for ministry and mission in the local church. Christchurch Baptist Church will pay tuition fees (up to £9,500 per annum) to the partner provider. We will discuss with you the learning structure and rhythm of each week to match your needs, interests, calling and the expectations of the partner provider. The church is willing to consider negotiating an employed role with the right applicant, (rather than a voluntary position with a requirement for theological training), subject to the total annual renumeration (including associated employment costs) not being greater than the cost of annual tuition fees.
Key to the role is embracing our vision and core values. The post-holder will hold a significant role in our existing staff team.
