We are seeking a creative, insightful and compassionate Inclusive Church Mission Researcher to help us discover how to engage and attract adults aged 20–50 in our inclusive Christian community, which is currently made up primarily of those aged 50–90.
We believe an inclusive church celebrates and affirms people whatever their disability, economic power, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, learning disability, mental health, neurodiversity, or sexuality and wishes to reflect such diversity within the life of the church.
You will spend some time with the congregation on a Sunday to worship with and be present alongside our congregation, to help us research and reflect how our church can connect meaningfully with younger generations and those of diverse backgrounds within our town. Your research will inform how our church evolves to be a truly inclusive community and will inform the potential creation of a longer-term Mission, Outreach and Community Engagement role.
Please visit https://loughboroughurc.co.uk to learn more about our mission, values, and inclusive approach.
