Description
Future Youth (MES) Worker
Purpose of the role
In working towards our vision to see the Good News of the Kingdom of God experienced by all across the Diocese, one of our priorities is Growing a Younger church. As part of this we are joining in with the national Church of England’s desire to develop and support 30,000 leaders of mission with children, young people and families (CYPF) by 2030; some of these new leaders will be paid roles within the church.
In the Diocese of Derby we are hoping to invest in two young adults aged 18-30, to join us as Future Youth Scheme workers. These 11-month training and experience gaining posts will seek to help participants discern a long-term possible vocation to Christian ministry with Children, Young People and Families. Successful applicants will gain a diverse experience of mission and ministry with CYPF within one of our specially selected placements as part of a wider process of discerning God’s call on your life.
These exciting, full-time roles paying a living wage will involve participants working closely with the ministry team of the church or mission community, to play their part in the Kingdom of God which is good news for all, helping to see transformation in the lives of children young people and families, the church grow and communities built.
Engagement in ministry and mission
If successful you will work with the leadership team and placement supervisors to play your part in seeing the vision of the church/context realised. Play an active role in the demonstration and declaration of the Kingdom of God, which is good news for all.
Experience a wide range of ministry opportunities, working with the placement supervisor and Diocesan Strategic Youth Lead to agree two primary focus areas for the placement. These focus areas will enable participants to experience ministry in an established setting and experience in a more outward or missional setting (roughly 50% each). This may include for example Sunday children’s and or youth ministry, messy church, schools outreach, after-school clubs, mentoring, etc.
Work with children and youth ministry leaders to support them in providing engaging activities for children and young people as part of the worshipping life of the church.
N.B. It is not expected that participants will have overall responsibility for a ministry or mission area, however they will have opportunities to experience and grow in leadership through the placement.
Closing date is 20 July 2025
