Description of Organization

Redeemer Presbyterian (PCA): Redeemer is a Gospel-Centered, Bible teaching, relationally driven, reformed church located in Raleigh, NC. Redeemer exists to help people come to know and follow Jesus in all areas of life for the glory of God and the good of our neighbors in Raleigh and the world. Raleigh is a thriving, diverse, family-oriented community with strong schools and a strong and growing economy. Raleigh is regularly rated as a top city in which to live and work. In addition, Raleigh is also within a couple hour drive to the mountains or to the beach.

Planted in 1997, RPC has been present for much of that growth of our city, transitioning from a small church plant to a solid church of ~550 members. Staff currently includes the Senior Pastor, Associate Pastor of Adult Discipleship, a full time Children's Ministry Director, part time Administrative Assistants, and we are currently in the process of hiring both a full time Youth Director/Pastor (previous Youth Pastor transitioned to a new calling), and this new position for Redeemer. You can find out more about us at redeemerpca.com.

Our Community: We aspire to embody a family ethos at Redeemer, regularly seeking Jesus together as brothers and sisters in Christ through weekly worship, Sunday school, community groups, Bible studies, and steady fellowship and service events throughout the year.

Why a new position?: We are humbled at God's working at our church. This has included steady growth over the years, which has now brought us to the place of requiring further staffing to support the needs of the church. Two particular areas in need of support are worship leadership (Redeemer has relied on faithful volunteers in worship since its planting) and shepherding of community life, particularly with young adults, college students, overall pastoral care and community groups.

Our Worship: In Redeemer's worship service (currently two Sunday morning worship services) we strive to craft a gospel-driven worship service with a mixture of singing, scripture reading and prayer along with preaching, a time of fellowship and the celebration of the sacraments. Our music style is a blend of hymns, contemporized hymns, and contemporary Christian worship songs. We enjoy a diverse group of faithful and skilled lay musicians who play a wide variety of instruments but are growing in our need for consistent oversight and leadership in this area.
