Vicar, St John's Church Worksop

Worksop | Southwell & Nottingham | Closing date: 27 January

St John’s is a charismatic evangelical church north of the town centre of Worksop. We are a diverse, united, warm, supportive and welcoming fellowship. We have a heart for our community, including those who are often overlooked and marginalised. A newcomer described us as “a place full of love, laughter, learning and fellowship”.

We have welcomed new worshippers and forged new links and partnerships in the community, as part of our recent major restoration work and a very successful heritage project.

As we stand on the threshold of a fresh exciting season we are ready for an incumbent who is a mature Christian, prayerful and attuned to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

This person is wise and understanding, a compassionate listener and encourager with a strong pastoral heart. They are a confident and empowering leader, skilled in building and working in teams, and deeply passionate about evangelism and church growth.

They will have the gifts and experience to:

• shape God’s vision for the future with us, aligning with our diocesan priorities of reaching younger and enhancing diversity,
• see the tremendous potential for growth and implement new initiatives,
• inspire and draw out gifts, nurture and develop leaders,
• deepen our worship and prayer life.

Could this be you?

For an informal conversation, please contact the church wardens, their contact details are in the Parish Profile. 

Closing Date: 12 noon on 27 January 2025

Visits and Interview: 26th and 27 February
