Job Description

Job Description:

Do you want to be on the front lines of one of the country's most unchurched areas and be a part of what God is doing?

There is a work of God happening in Taunton, MA. People are searching for God, committing their lives to Jesus, overcoming addiction, healing from brokenness, and growing in their relationship with Jesus. God is using us to impact our growing congregation and community for Jesus. If you want to be a part of this movement through the ministry of worship, you may be the one God is calling as the next worship pastor at Christ Community.

We are serious about reaching our area for Christ, and the role of worship pastor is vital to the mission. We are not merely looking for someone who can play, sing, and lead the congregation in musical worship. We are looking for someone who is called to reach the lost, make disciples, has a shepherd's heart, and lives a life of worship. If this excites you, please send us your resume; we would love to talk with you. We are looking for someone who is called to New England and trusts in the promise of Matthew 6:33 NIV – "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
