Southern Baptist Church seeking Full-Time Pastor

Are you a Christ-centered shepherd who loves people, communicates God's Word with clarity,

and leads with humility and grace? If so Calvary Baptist Church in Kannapolis, NC, may be the

place God is preparing for your next season of ministry. We are a close-knit, gospel-driven

congregation with a desire to see people saved and Jesus Christ glorified. After more than 70

years of faithful ministry, we are praying for the right pastor to guide us into a new chapter —

someone who values Scripture, models servant leadership, and has a heart to reach the next

generation while caring well for the whole church family. We are looking for a leader who is not

only spiritually mature and biblically grounded, but also relational — someone who listens well,

loves people deeply, and enjoys serving alongside others in a spirit of unity.

Calvary Baptist Church is planning to relocate into a growing, family-friendly community surrounded by many new homes, strong schools, and opportunities for connection and outreach. Kannapolis offers the pace and feel of a smaller city, with all the benefits of Central Piedmont's vibrant cultural and recreational opportunities just a short drive away. It's the kind of place where you can build meaningful relationships, raise a family, and live out your calling in ministry and in life.

As the Lead Pastor, you'll step into a church that is biblically faithful, relationally warm, and mission-minded. The members are engaged, encouraging, and eager to follow godly leadership. You won't be starting from scratch, but you will have the opportunity to cast fresh vision, develop leaders, and help us engage a new community with the love and truth of the gospel.

If you're a shepherd-teacher with a deep love for God's people, a heart for the gospel, and a desire to lead with grace, conviction, and humility, we would be honored to learn more about you. We are not just searching for someone to fill a role — we are praying for the right person to walk with us, grow with us, and help lead us into the next season of life and ministry. If that sounds like a fit, let's begin the conversation. Send your resume today!
