Newcastle Ministry Experience Scheme

diocese of newcastle logo

The Diocese of Newcastle, in the land of the northern saints, is the Church of England’s most northerly diocese. We serve a hugely diverse area: from inner city Newcastle to the deep rural parishes of Northumberland.

You will live with other MES participants in community in Newcastle, and undertake a placement in a city parish. There will also be opportunity to undertake a short placement in one of our rural parishes. The group will reflect together on their different experiences, and study alongside others on a programme of foundational theology. Our scheme also runs alongside the New Wine Discipleship Year, based at St Thomas’ in the city centre.

Our aim is to help you grow as a follower of Jesus Christ, give you loads of great experiences and stories, and help you reflect deeply on where God may be calling you next. We’d love to hear from you!
