We are two Anglican parishes serving the village of Mountsorrel in North Leicestershire seeking to increase the work we do with young people in the local Church and community. This youth and schools’ work post will build on the foundation work achieved by our outgoing youth worker who has been with us for four years and our children and families’ worker who has been in post for eight years. You will be an integral part of our ministry team and have the opportunity to work alongside the staff and pupils of the nearby secondary school.
Here’s what some of our young people think about the work we do:
- “I love the Thursday group, it’s somewhere fun to go with our friends.”
- “Our Friday lunchtime group is a calm space where we can learn a little something about Jesus.”
Job Description
- To oversee and develop the work amongst the Church youth (11-25 years).
- To lead events and activities for young people – in a variety of settings including Church and school – which both communicate and practise the Christian gospel, working with local volunteers and recruiting new supporters.

- To work with the ministry team in delivering appropriate content for Sunday worship.
- To assist the incumbent with baptism visiting and preparation of youth for baptism and confirmation.
- To partner with Rawlins Academy in Quorn where many Mountsorrel young people go to school.
- To partner with the Town Wide Youth Work (part of the Loughborough Churches Partnership) in Christian outreach to young people and volunteers.
- To encourage attendance of young people at Christian camps and events.
