Diverse Stream Clergy Lead: Antioch Network

A demanding and deeply rewarding opportunity to lead a church, raise diverse leaders and plant new communities across Greater Manchester, helping shape the next chapter of a growing movement. 

The Antioch Network is a growing church-planting network within the Diocese of Manchester, committed to seeing new worshipping communities flourish through evangelism, discipleship, leadership development, and mission. Rooted in the life of the Church of England and shaped by a pioneering spirit, the network seeks to serve diverse communities across Greater Manchester and beyond. The vision is to make disciples by planting churches.

The Diverse Stream Lead will provide strategic and spiritual leadership for the network’s work among diverse communities, helping to develop healthy, growing, intercultural churches led by evangelists and church planters.

This is an exciting opportunity for a gifted pioneering leader to shape mission in one of the UK’s most culturally diverse urban contexts.
