Vicar St Matthew’s,
Tipton
Are you the one?
Are you the one who God is calling to lead St Matthew’s, a lively charismatic evangelical church in the heart of the black country, with a vision to share the love of Christ, make disciples, and serve the community in this large, urban, multi-cultural parish? This is an exciting new season for St Matthew’s in which there has been significant recent growth and renewal after a period of change and loss.
We are looking for a Vicar who:
- Is a prayerful, passionate, missional leader, up for a challenge.
- Is committed to preaching and living the truth of God’s Word.
- Will foster passionate, Spirit-led worship for all-ages.
- Will help us to discern and shape a vision for sustained growth.
- Will build authentic relationships within a caring church family.
- Is committed to recognising and releasing the gifts of all God’s people.
- Will be a visible and approachable presence within the parish.
- Is enthusiastic about engaging with schools and reaching the young.
- Is a shepherd with a pastoral and servant heart.
For our part we look forward to giving our new Vicar a warm black country welcome and to working with them to grow God’s kingdom and to face the challenges ahead. Tipton is a great place to live and minister!
