About Euxton Parish Church
Euxton (pronounced Ex-ton) Parish Church is a growing church in the evangelical tradition, on the edge of Chorley. In recent years, following the introduction of a weekly All Age Service we have seen significant growth in our ministry amongst families. We have very strong links with our local church primary school.
Our Youth Group was established in November 2021 and has continued to steadily grow, engaging young people from year 6 upwards. We long to continue to grow our children and youth ministry in both depth, number and outreach. We have an incredible opportunity with families coming to church (especially from year 4 upwards for school admissions).
The great question is how we continue to engage with these young people and their families to enable them to come to know and love Jesus and build a lasting relationship with Him and remain part of our church family?
Our current church vision is “to be a healthy church which transforms its community”. Our focus is on discipleship (growing in our faith and service), outreach (reaching those who do not yet know Jesus) and resources (using wisely what God has blessed us with). But you would be joining us at an exciting time as we develop our new vision and action plan for the next 5 years, which young people are a central aspect.
We are looking for someone who
- is committed to growing in their own relationship with Jesus.
- has a proven ability to enable and inspire children and young people to grow a deep rooted personal faith in God.
- is an innovative, creative and visionary self-starter to join our team. is humble, gracious and has a sense of humour and is a proactive team player.
- has a heart for mission to the last, the least and the lost.is a good communicator, confidently able to engagingly share the gospel with a variety of ages and in a variety of settings.
- has experience of growing, leading and mentoring volunteer teams. is warm, relational and will intentionally integrate themselves into community and church life.
- has an understanding of the challenges that children or young people in 2026 face and how to support them. has a knowledge and understanding of a parish context.
