Church Membership 

Paraklesis is not just an Association for children's, youth and families ministers. We are also open for "Church Membership". Some of you reading this might remember the "We Love Our Youth Worker" Charter of a few years ago. Youthscape have kindly given us all the material and content that went in to creating the Charter and we have taken that and developed a "Paraklesis Charter" that churches can sign up to.

We hope this new charter mark will be a mark of quality and an assurance to perspective applicants for children's and youth ministry roles that, when a church has the Charter, they know they have done the work required to give that new employee the best chance to flourish.

Cost for Church Membership?

The fee for church membership is £100 (Renewable every three years). This fee covers the work we need to do checking documents, policies and procedures and brief zoom interviews with the church leadership. If a church feels the requirements of the charter are a challenge - we will help them meet the requirements with bespoke additional support.
