Introducing the new 2026 SERVE Team!

Over the next 9 weeks, these 5 teenagers and our 3 amazing leaders (Rosy, Jess + Nathaniel) will meet together and explore what it means to lead, serve and live like Jesus.

Please pray for them as they gather, learn, grow in faith and discover more about how God can use them.

We’re also hoping to run SERVE in the Belfast area in the new year.

If you know any teenagers aged 16–18 who might be interested, please get in touch with Andrew McClelland

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who has a heart for children and wants to help shape and develop children’s ministry, both locally and across the diocese.

There's so much joy in seeing children grow, build friendships, discover faith and become part of the life of the church. It’s such a rewarding area of ministry, and there is so much potential to develop and try new things.

If you’ve ever thought about working in children’s ministry, I’d really encourage you to consider applying. Whether full-time or part-time, this could be a brilliant opportunity to use your gifts, make a difference and be part of developing children’s work for the future.

Please share this with anyone you think might be interested! 👇

The diocese seeks to employ a full or part-time Children's Development Officer. Applications close at 4.00pm on Monday 19 October 2026.

We are super excited to be launching our 9 week SERVE course for young people aged 16-18. It's £40pp starting on Wednesday 30th September in the Hillsborough / Moria area.

SERVE is an incredible way for young people to meet weekly together to discover who they are and the leader God has created them to be. through Bible study, discussion, activities, we'll explore what it means to use our gifts to serve God, and others, while growing in our own faith.
