We seek to appoint a community pioneer to launch ‘Earthed’, a new initiative that seeks to work across the Almondsbury and Severnside area (South Gloucestershire)
Earthed will seek to ensure that our rural areas are not overlooked or suffer from neglect. We understand that deprivation and need in rural areas can be as acute as is present in larger cities and towns. There is a lack of services and transport, and this can increase a sense of isolation and compound problems further. In providing spaces where people can gather, we begin to walk alongside people and share experiences. In sharing experiences people can become change makers in their stories. Lives can be transformed by being present, hope-filled and by amplifying the voices of those in these communities.
You would join a team of community pioneers that form the Flourish team. We are passionate about enabling spaces where people can share time, build relationships and explore new and different ways of experiencing God and faith. We are seeking a curious and creative individual who is willing to be open to new ways of working and thinking.
If you have a heart for working within rural communities and are interested in helping to develop spaces where people can share time and build relationships, then we would love to hear from you. This is an exciting but quirky and innovative role and requires the successful applicant to be open to exploration and experimentation.
The successful applicant will be supported fully so they are free to wander and seek to respond to where God is calling. Applicants will be creative visionaries, who are resilient and able to respond to the challenges such a unique role will uncover.
