Mission Initiative Newcastle East (MINE) is an exciting new venture in Newcastle East in the
area of Byker and Walker. As an Anglican ministry we hope to reach beyond the traditional
borders of parish and diocese to engage with God’s presence in our community and proclaim
the Gospel in this urban setting. The clergy and laypeople of the four parishes here are given
a mandate to be a more effective Christian witness in this area, building effective partnerships
with individuals and community organisations, church-going or not. Part of our work is to
reflect theologically- how is God present with us here in this urban setting – and to share this
reflection with others who may benefit.
