Job Description

Adirondack Bible Chapel is looking for a Christian married couple to serve as House Parents at our ministry center, a 200-acre property in the heart of the Adirondacks where people come to heal, to grow, to serve and to rest.

This isn't a program. It's the church being the church: a family of believers living out the gospel together. As House Parents, you'll be the warm, steady presence that makes the lodge feel like home.

What You'll Do

Share meals, conversation and everyday life with residents.
Host community dinners and bonfires every other week, plus a monthly Sunday brunch.

Husband (40–45 hrs./week): Care for the lodge and grounds, including mowing and minor repairs, and serve as the after-hours contact.

Wife (20–25 hrs./week): Help with meal planning and groceries, coordinate chores for women residents and keep the kitchen and common areas welcoming.

You won't be counselors or disciplinarians. You'll report to our executive director (pastor) and work alongside our discipleship & operations manager, who handle counseling, discipline and resident oversight. Your private time and marriage will be protected.

We're Looking For

  • A married couple who love Jesus and each other.
  • Genuinely hospitable people with healthy boundaries.
  • Able to manage a household, stick to a budget and handle basic property upkeep.
  • In agreement with our statement of faith.

What We Offer

Total Package $50,000 - $60,000
Private on-site apartment with utilities included (details in the residency agreement).
Salary $30,000 - $40,000
Three weeks vacation
Life in a close-knit church family, surrounded by the lakes, woods and seasons of the Adirondacks.

How to Apply

Send a cover letter sharing your testimony and why you feel called to this ministry, along with a resume for each spouse, to secretary@adirondackbiblechapel.org

About this Church

Here, you will find a family, the church just being the church. You will find a diverse congregation from all walks of life, united by the shared goal of glorifying God through preaching the gospel of Christ and making disciples.

Our worship services are a vibrant blend of singing, Christ-centered Bible teaching and prayer. God’s Word is the primary focus of our service, with verse-by-verse and expositional preaching/teaching. We invite you to come worship.
