The Point is a Bishop's Mission Order church plant (planted in 2004), which is a lively, growing, all-age community based in Burgess Hill. The congregation is about 250 strong, of whom around 60 are children and 40 are youth.
They seek to appoint an Associate Vicar for The Point. This is an exciting new post which is full-time and stipendiary.
They offer:
- a welcoming, all-age, informal church family with many new Christians;
- an active mission-focused community seeking the transformation of mid-Sussex;
- working with a number of local mission projects and other local churches;
- a supportive staff team including worship pastor, youth pastor, children's pastor, administrator and mission pastor;
- accommodation: a four bedroom house in beautiful mid-Sussex;
- an evangelical, charismatic style of worship.
They are praying for an ordained minister who is:
- a prayerful, gifted and experienced preacher and pastor who is committed to growing the church numerically and spiritually;
- a good planner and organiser who can train and motivate others;
- a team player, good communicator, approachable and encouraging;
- someone passionate about working with and training small groups and developing the gifts of others.
