Lead Pastor
Job Overview
We are undergoing a transition following the departure of our Pastor, who faithfully served our congregation for 21 years. His decision to leave was not due to any discord within our congregation, rather he chose to relocate closer to his daughter's family. He departed with the full support and appreciation of our congregation, as there were no grievances regarding his performance or departure.
It's an exciting time for our church. We are in search of a pastor who possesses the qualities and vision to guide us on the next phase of our spiritual journey. As a congregation, we are committed to growth, both individually and collectively, and we believe that the right leader can inspire and empower us to reach new heights in our faith.
We are seeking a pastor who:
- Has fallen in love with Jesus and His bride – the church.
- Prioritizes intimacy with the Father, His son Jesus and His Holy Spirit through prayer, worship and time spent in God's Word.
- Has a heart for the lost and a desire to help raise up disciples from all generations.
- Is gifted as a communicator and who's preaching is based on the Word of God.
- Is a team player and is willing to work alongside the elders to see God's Kingdom advance in this place we call home.
- Is willing to lead with authenticity, courage, and integrity and who will invest in developing and empowering new volunteer leaders to do the same.
- Can promote and help carry out the Mission and Vision of the church.
- Understands that they are here for the people...the people aren't here for them.
- Understands the importance of engaging in people's lives. Whether that's visitors, members or those who are in the hospital. And who loves to engage with the community we live in.
Job Description
- Teach Biblically-based content through sermons and sermon series that are guided by the Holy Spirit.
- Encourage fellowship and unity among members.
- Prepare members to serve as disciples.
- Provide Pastoral care and assistance to those in need.
