Do you have a passion for God's mission in London? 
Do you have a heart for those least likely to hear the gospel - and a gift for connecting with them?
Could you come alongside local churches to engage, envision and equip them to reach more Londoners with the life-changing news of Jesus?

At London City Mission, we estimate that one in two Londoners, that’s roughly 4.5 million people, are unlikely to hear the gospel in their lifetime. For many of these people, their everyday experience will be one of rejection or helplessness and their cultural and religious background may mean they are least likely to hear the gospel.

It’s clear throughout the Bible that God has a heart for people who are marginalised and overlooked. And tragically, it’s often in London’s most deprived communities that people are least likely to hear the invitation to repentance and eternal hope in Jesus.

At London City Mission, we are partnering with churches who have a growing passion for reaching out to the communities around them, but who need equipping and building up for this crucial work. Our aim over the next five years is to see 150 new missional teams established in churches across London.

These missional teams are groups of church members who take responsibility for a ministry to a community who may not otherwise hear about Jesus, are affirmed and publicly supported by the church leadership.  They pray for each other and for the people they want to invite to follow Christ, using their different gifts regularly to reach people who are part of this community.

We pray that, together by 2029, these teams will be part of 25,000 gospel conversations within communities where Jesus Christ isn't known. These roles are, therefore, Church mobilisation roles.

We are seeking candidates for a Missionary role, who have a passion for sharing the good news of Jesus with specific groups of Londoners, and who can also come alongside churches to train and inspire Christian believers to reach their local communities with the hope of the gospel.

The successful candidates will minister in – but not restricted to - the following location:

• Missionary in the Waterloo-London Bridge team with a specialist focus on supporting churches in Homeless and Marginalised ministry that empowers, brings dignity, and offers gospel transformation. Our Webber Street Day Centre will be a base for ministry as well as our priority boroughs across London.

We welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates. We are committed to building diverse and balanced teams.

The successful applicants will have experience of outreach amongst the neediest groups in our society but will also understand the church landscape in London and be able to inspire those in London churches to get involved in outreach. They will work in missional teams to equip church volunteers for outreach where the most need is in their communities, drawing upon their particular experience when required.

They will also need to be able to raise ministry personal support, including a target financial support as well as prayer supporters for the work of the Mission through personal and church partnership networks.

We will help train, develop and support you in your role through our professional and established Training team, your line manager and other colleagues. Our heart is to help you be the best that you can be in your role and to help you develop further in your missional and evangelism skills.
