Important Requirements

Applications can only be considered from those who are UK citizens or who otherwise have a right to work in the UK.

You will need to be able to declare wholehearted acceptance of the FIEC doctrinal basis and agreement with the FIEC ethos statements.

We are a Reformed and evangelical Church committed to worshipping God, growing in our love for one another and serving the city of Sheffield. We are a diverse congregation who celebrate the saving love of God for us in Jesus. As a church we recognise we are but one piece of the glorious tapestry God is weaving together for his glory. There is a sense in which, as Christians, we are in a relay race, seeking to pass on the 'baton' of the gospel. We are to receive, guard and pass on the good news that Jesus Christ has "abolished death and brought life and immortality to light" (2 Timothy 1:10).

Christian discipleship is not a ministry programme. It is a way of life. However, being set aside for involvement in ministry provides unique opportunities for growth in grace. Our internship programme aims to invest in men and women in order to equip them for fruitful lives of service in God's world. We would love you to consider this opportunity which is a year-long programme starting in September 2026.

There would be three main components to an intern's responsibilities on a week-to-week basis. The exact involvement in these areas is flexible and can be tailored to suit the gifts of the intern and the needs of the church:

Training: We anticipate that a Wycliffe intern would spend up to a day and a half a week studying, both in group settings and through a programme of personal reading and study, supported by a mentor.

Ministry: We foresee that an intern would have a particular ministry focus, seeking to support and develop ministries within the life of the church. Some of the ministry areas could include:
Student discipleship
Children & youth work
Outreach
Pastoral visitation amongst the elderly

Practical service: This would provide an invaluable service to the rest of the church as well as developing qualities of servant-heartedness and humility which are vital for Christian ministry.
