social justice.
LCI has been serving Leeds for 170 years and this latest iteration of our work puts local churches and their needs at the heart of our mission. The new roles will involve:
- Working with an ecumenical range of churches in Leeds
- Using sophisticated listening and facilitation skills to sensitively accompany churches
- Providing creative and innovative theological resources
- Drawing on a broad and effective knowledge of theological research
- Being part of a small and supportive team committed to critical reflection
- Acting in support of church activities and service to the community
- Making relevant links to our local universities and places of learning
While our activities are focused within Leeds, learning generated through our work is shared more widely. In our new strategy these opportunities are likely to increase, and dissemination of learning is a key part of our approach.
The CEO and Trustees of LCI are looking for highly capable theologians who are equally at home in the academy and the community. These two posts offer a rare opportunity to ground theological development in the life of churches and work with local people to discover where faith finds expression in sustaining justice for all.
