Family and Communities Worker
Full Time
Salary: From £28,000+ (depending on experience)
Minchinhampton Baptist Church (MBC) is experiencing exciting growth in our Children’s and Families Ministry—both in our Sunday gatherings and through our work in the wider community, particularly at the Minchinhampton Community Hub.
Minchinhampton is a beautiful Cotswold town, just 10 minutes from Stroud and 40 minutes from Bristol.
We believe God is calling us to be:
* More like Jesus
* Being Family
