Other

St Josephs is a growing evangelical Anglican church in the West End of Newcastle upon Tyne. Planted from Jesmond Parish Church almost 10 years ago, we are part of the Anglican Mission in England (AMiE). By God's grace our church family now includes over 300 people on a Sunday and a staff team of nine. As we prepare to send out our current Minister in Training to plant a new church in Northumberland, we are excited to see who the Lord will raise up to help take the work on.
