They then scatter, to play their part in the mission that God calls us to, empowered by his Spirit to live everyday, supernatural lives for him.
 

Spear is at the very forefront of their mission to bring life through Jesus to all. They believe that every person, whether young or old, has a unique call on their life, and they want to see each person find the purpose for which they have been created. Find out more on their website.

Prayer and worship are embedded into daily working practices, so there is an Occupational Requirement for applicants to be practicing Christians.

• Salary: from £28,000 - £32,000 FTE
• Part-time, 4 days a week - Monday to Thursday
• 25 days annual leave pro rata, including bank holidays

• The Spear Programme offers a rewarding opportunity to work with young people, but it requires a dedicated commitment.
