join the Minsteracres Team
Minsteracres Retreat Centre is a Christian place of prayer with a resident community of Roman Catholic Passionist priests and lay people.
We welcome people who share our values and we invite you to enjoy our hospitality, food and accommodation. Minsteracres is set in a beautiful 110 acre estate in the North East of England. Within our historic buildings and estate we have spaces for prayer and rooms to hire for retreats and events.
The charity has three charitable objectives, which are a continuing expression of the Passionist charism (ethos) to reach out to those on the margins of Church or society:
- Operate the residential retreat centre, which includes a retreat programme prepared and delivered by the Rector and volunteer retreat team as well as mainly Christian groups arranging their own retreat programmes;
- Provide an Outreach programme which brings groups of refugees and asylum seekers, carer groups and others on the margins to Minsteracres for respite days or stays. The Outreach Co-ordinator is supported by a team of volunteers in delivering the programme for the service users.
- The conservation of the house (Grade II listed) and extensive grounds.
The staff include a Retreat Centre Administrator and assistant, a Catering Manager/Chef, an assistant chef and 3-4 part-time kitchen assistants; a housekeeping supervisor with two assistants, an Outreach Co-ordinator and an Estate and Buildings Manager with an assistant. We are presently recruiting for a full-time housekeeping supervisor.
