Recruitment Pack Children’s Worker (2/3 FTE) & Families / Adults Worker (1/3 FTE) St Andrew the Great is seeking to appoint a Children’s Worker to oversee ministry amongst 0-11s. This is an opportunity for a Bible-loving and well-organised Christian man or woman to work prayerfully with a range of leaders to support evangelism and discipleship amongst children, in partnership with parents. At the same time, we are also seeking to appoint a Families / Adults Worker to participate in ministry amongst ‘city’ adults (this covers parents and other adults who are not part of HUB / iHUB / Focus ministries). This is an opportunity for a Bible-loving and well-organised Christian man or woman to work prayerfully with a range of leaders to support evangelism and discipleship amongst adults. Applications may be made to either one of these posts, or both together. About us St Andrew the Great (StAG) has a diverse congregation which reflects our location in Cambridge city centre. We mainly comprise four groups of people: undergraduates, 20-30s, internationals, and ‘city’ members (adults who are not part of the other groups, plus under- 18s). That said, our motto for all we do is the same: The gospel to Cambridge; gospel workers to the world. As a church, we depend upon God in prayer and put teaching the Bible at the heart of all we do as we believe it equips us with all we need in living for His glory. In the past 25 years, there have been three church “grafts” to other local parishes and, most recently, a church plant to Huntingdon in 2018. We are a member of ReNew, and the PCC has passed a resolution in line with the House of Bishops’ declaration and receives additional oversight from the Bishop of Ebbsfleet. Page 1 of 6 About the Children’s Worker role The vision for our children’s work is that children would grow in a real and personal faith in the Lord Jesus; we do this by supporting parents in their ministry to their children as the primary Bible teachers and through faithful, engaging Bible teaching to the children in an age-appropriate way on Sundays when the church family gathers. StAG has over 140 under 11s in the church family, and we’ll typically see 90-100 at one of our six children’s groups & three creches over our two Sunday morning services. The role holder will work under the immediate oversight of the Associate Vicar and will have administrative oversight of all the 0-11s children’s ministry as well as responsibility for all the Bible teaching that happens within it. Responsibilities for the Children’s Worker There are three areas of focus: Bible teaching and evangelism, caring for and training leaders, and partnering with parents. 1. Bible teaching and evangelism • Developing a robust and effective curriculum and accompanying resources. • Planning the teaching for children’s groups and writing session briefs. • Growing, adapting or improving opportunities for regular outreach which currently includes Christmas parties as well as a one-day holiday-club-style evangelistic event. • Depending on experience and aptitude, planning the teaching for the children's talk slots in our Sunday morning services and coaching speakers before and after delivery. • Depending on experience and aptitude, contributing to all age services, which might include occasional preaching. • Speaking at events for local schools, such as Christian Unions and events in the church building. 2. Overseeing leaders • Recruiting, training and supporting leaders in teaching the Bible to children. • Maintaining excellent standards in safeguarding. • Running and coordinating training sessions for leaders, including at the monthly prayer meeting for children’s leaders. • Setting an example of teaching and engaging with children. • Supporting the groups in giving effective feedback to one another. • Organising and managing volunteer rotas for crèches, actions and additional helpers for Sunday groups and other possible one-off events (e.g. Day Away). • Pastoral care and support for leaders through regular meetings and catch ups • Connecting with the wider youth and children’s ministry scene in Cambridge, East Anglia, and the Southeast of England, to give and receive support in youth ministry. Page 2 of 6 3. Partnering with parents • Partnering with families to understand how the StAG children’s ministry can best support them including meeting with the parents’ advisory group once a term. • Maintaining and developing opportunities to envision and equip families in their family discipleship (e.g. Families Together Lunch, termly training, joint leaders and parents prayer meetings) • Promoting partnership between parents and leaders through communication channels, socials, hosting, culture-setting, etc. • Regular prayer for StAG families.
