Ministry Description |
The Community of Hope UCC—part of the Madison Christian Community, an ecumenical partnership that sprang to life in 1968 and includes Advent Lutheran ELCA—is seeking a full-time pastor to lead our dynamic ministry in Madison, Wisconsin. Our purpose is “To live faithfully and lovingly with God, neighbors and creation.” We seek to bolster our already-strong ecumenical partnership by “Creating a unique and lively ecumenical entity, while celebrating and advancing the strengths of our denominational traditions.”
We are an open and affirming congregation seeking a pastor who will preach inspiring sermons related to our daily lives, provide pastoral care for older members and help us reach out to new members. Our members are actively engaged in social justice ministries throughout Madison and the wider world: Madison Urban Ministry, Harvest of Hope, Haiti Allies, Dane County United, Habitat for Humanity, CROP Walk, Homeless programs, Gardening projects, Food pantry, Jail ministry, and others.
Madison—a beautiful city built on an isthmus between four lakes—is home to our State Capitol, the University of Wisconsin, a vibrant healthcare system, a thriving economy and a host of social and cultural activities: Farmers Market, Art Fair on the Square, Concerts on the Square, Taste of Madison, Paddle and Portage canoe race, and numerous artistic offerings at our magnificent Overture Center for the Arts.
Both Hope and Advent congregations are seeking new pastors simultaneously, thus offering a unique opportunity to develop a team ministry that supports our members in their faith journeys and social justice ministries. If you wish to nurture and challenge church members while being nurtured and challenged by them, this is the place for you!
