Ministry Description |
After a long interim process, which was interrupted by the global pandemic, our small but mighty family church has decided on a new direction and structure, which we believe will lead Sycamore Church into a thriving future. While we had first envisioned this position as best filled with a designated term pastor, we are now feeling that we would be better served by moving directly to a bilingual and bicultural candidate. If this might be you, please contact us so that we can tell you more about our hopes and dreams. We seek an energetic and personable bilingual/bicultural (Japanese) pastor to walk beside us with imagination in the spirit of Congregationalism. We seek a minister who will continue to honor our history of Japanese ministries and support the present mission of Japanese ministries and language, as we move from being two separate sections, English speaking and Japanese speaking memberships. You will inspire, empower and energize us with your leadership, as you lead the way into a new mission of Justice and Witness Ministries. A minister with savvy technology skills is needed post pandemic. We have a successful preschool ministry, and a multicultural community. Our new pastor will be able to hire a part-time church administrator upon your arrival to support you and the church in these new directions. Our new minister must help us navigate how to be the church while some of us are still sheltered in place due to the pandemic. The membership has steadily declined for several years and most of the English speakers, who have been the administrative leaders of the entire church for years, have gotten older. Please have patience with us. But be assertive in our need and your work to move the entire church forward in revitalization and growth. |
