Above Bar Church is a large and growing church in Southampton. Based in 2 campuses, we serve the local community and seek to point them towards a relationship with Jesus Christ. To aid us in this mission, we are looking to recruit a Ministry Trainee.
The main purpose of the role is to develop the trainee as a ministry leader and disciple of Jesus, who is growing in spiritual disciplines and biblical understanding. It is also hoped that the training opportunities provided will help the trainee to discern if God is calling them into long-term Christian ministry.
The role will include some time set aside for study (both directed training and self-study) and also being given experience in one core ministry area within the life of the Church (for example children, youth, small groups or internationals) and also exposure to other aspects of Church life, work and ministry.
The role is offered as a 1 year fixed term contract with a potential to extend to a second year. For more information, please download our attached job description.
The closing date for this role is 30th June but we reserve the right to close the role earlier if we have sufficient applications.
