• Caring For Life is a Christian charity established in 1987 to "Share the Love of Jesus" with at-risk and hurting people, including those who are homeless.
• Through providing long-term support, homes, and friendship, we gradually help people to move on from past heartache and hardship towards a happier future.
• We believe in following in Jesus’s footsteps, following His example, commands and teachings; this is what inspires and underpins our ministry. 
• As staff members, we believe it is the Christian’s duty to reach out to those on the margins of society with the love of God and the message of hope and salvation, found only in Jesus.

Working at Caring For Life doesn’t just provide a job; it fulfils a calling into Christian Ministry.  After 37 years, Caring FL continues to maintain its standpoint of only employing those who love the Lord Jesus.  At Caring For Life, our work is based on the principle of Christian servanthood, and the way we support beneficiaries, and manage staff and volunteers, should all bring glory to God.

The principal aim of Caring For Life is to share the love of Jesus on a daily and very practical basis with many people, some of whom might have generally known nothing of His love; doing so through loving care and example, and it is our desire that they come to personal faith in Christ Jesus and become a part of His church.

We have some exciting opportunities for those wanting to work in Christian ministry, in a privileged environment where we get to share the love Jesus with the vulnerable and disadvantaged on the outskirts of Leeds.

These posts involve taking an active role in providing compassionate and consistent care to beneficiaries; taking part in prayer times; providing personal testimony of your experience of Jesus’ love, with both beneficiaries and members of the local community; and you may, from time to time, be asked to assist in supporting presentations in representing the Trust, predominantly to Christian church groups.
