St. Mark's Church (Church Plant)

Who we are

As part of a bold diocesan programme to resource the urban church, funded in part by the national church’s Strategic Development Fund, we're excited to be planting St. Mark’s Church, Grimsby from St. Swithin’s, Lincoln in summer 2021. We are now seeking to appoint a visionary and pioneering staff team to work together to pray, plan and prepare before then planting in September 2021. 

Building on the vision of St. Swithin’s to exist so that people will encounter the LOVE of God, learn to LIVE more like Jesus, and GO in the power of the Spirit to see lives and communities transformed, the Grimsby plant will have a particular focus on:

- Revitalising the church of St. Mark’s, Grimsby and establishing it to become a resource church which plants churches. 
- Reaching those in the town and surrounding areas with the gospel, in particular the Rising Generations which is largely missing in the UK church. 
- Empowering the local community by releasing disciple making disciples. 
- Bringing renewal to the town and region.
