Want to play your part in transforming society?
You’re in the right place.
The mission of The Mount is radically loved, radically loving as we look to reflect God’s love for us ‘while we were still far off’ to a large post industrial town where just 1% of people go to church. We are passionate about reaching the younger generation, creatively sharing our good news with the lost, growing and equipping new disciples and standing up to injustice. Since planting 3-4 years ago, we’ve seen exciting growth and we believe Spear will play a big role in our next chapter.
“This is a great opportunity for our church to make a huge difference in our town, while supporting the generation we hope to reach.” Tim Coates, Church Leader
