Description of Job
All Saints Patcham has embarked on a new Apostolic Partnership with St Peter’s Brighton (part of the HTB Network), and are building a team to join the existing congregation in relaunching All Saints with a fresh vision - to play their part in the evangelisation of the nation, the revitalisation of the church and the transformation of society.
The parish covers 3 areas, Patcham, Westdene and Hollingbury, and we are looking to develop 3 thriving worshipping communities across the area. We want to see the local church come alive and thrive, making a difference to the people who live there. We are looking for a highly motivated individual with a passion for Jesus, showing strong leadership and communication skills and a heart for Church revitalisation who feels called to join us on this adventure as our Worship Pastor.
Because of the partnership between two different church traditions, a key element of the role will be to sensitively evolve our worshipping style from the more traditional to more contemporary, something we see as key for the growth of our church family. All generations are represented in our churches, and we want to honour and draw together in worship the youngest to the oldest, declaring the glory of God together.
Our organisational values - to Be Brave, to Be Family and to Be Light - underpin all that we do. For this role, that means that we want you to be brave and willing to try new things even if they might seem scary. We want you to value hospitality, warmth and welcome, and to value honest feedback. Most of all we want you to have a sense of joy in the work that you do, taking Jesus very seriously, but yourself very lightly!
The role is part time, but full time employment would be considered if additional responsibilities were also taken on e.g. Comms, Youth etc.
