About the church:

St Andrew the Great (StAG) has a diverse congregation which reflects our location in Cambridge city centre. We mainly comprise four groups of people: families and city (Cambridge resident) members, internationals, undergraduates, and 20-30s. That said, our motto for all we do is the same: 

The gospel to Cambridge; gospel workers to the world. 

As a church, we depend upon God in prayer and put teaching the Bible at the heart of all we do as we believe it equips us with all we need in living for His glory. In the past 25 years, there have been three church “grafts” to other local parishes and, most recently, a church plant to Huntingdon in 2018. We are a member of ReNew, and the PCC has passed a resolution in line with the House of Bishops’ declaration and receives additional oversight from the Bishop of Ebbsfleet.

In order to honour the principle in Acts 6:1-7 that some of the church’s staff be set apart for the ministry of prayer and the Word of God, we are seeking to develop the practical and operational support in the church, in this new and exciting role.
