Ministry Description |
First Church of Christ in Longmeadow, MA is seeking an Interim Pastor to server for an estimated six months to one year period. This position is in response to the loss of our present Interim Pastor who is leaving to begin a settled pastor position We seek an interim who will act as our spiritual guide and help us continue to build on the positive energy we have experienced working with our previous Interim Dallas Bradel and our coach Stacy Swain. We are looking for a seasoned leader whose dedication and energy is exhibited in the following priorities: • To preach the good news, lead worship and participate in the sacraments in a manner faithful to the broader Christian heritage and appropriate to the characteristics of our church’s specific culture and setting • To accept and promote diversity, to inspire others to do so, and to minister in a multicultural and multiracial, open and affirming, just peace, accessible to all, united and uniting church • To organize, implement and administer the operations of a complex organization, to initiate change when appropriate, and live out a servant leadership style • To lead and encourage ministries of evangelism, service, stewardship and social transformation Our 300+ year old church has been at the center of our community since its founding. We worship in an historic meeting house on a campus that includes our church school, meeting rooms, social gathering spaces and a Montessori preschool. Our congregation remains one of the largest in Western Massachusetts. We are blessed with an excellent and dedicated staff, including an Associate Pastor, Music Director, Administrator, Sexton and Communications Director. We seek an Interim Senior Pastor who can work closely with their staff and our active, engaged congregation as we transition between Settled Pastors. |
