Pastoral Resident
Job Description
The pastoral residency program exists to fulfill our mission of making disciples who make disciples, by making pastors who make pastors. Embedded into our church culture is leadership development. We believe God has prepared our church to engage in multiplying pastors to send them as healthy, prepared leaders into long-term vocational ministry with many of them becoming senior leaders within 10 years of their residency completion. We believe by multiplying and sending pastors in this way, we will help continue to build healthy cultures and leaders in other contexts to continue building God’s Kingdom throughout the world.
This position is a full-time position with benefits. This program is two years in length. The resident is given work hours in the final months of the residency to apply, network and interview for positions at other churches.
The responsibilities of the position include but are not limited to:
- preaching
- pastoral care
- leading and recruiting teams
- hospitality/connections
The position has flexibility for the individual's gifts to be used to serve and develop.
