Ministry Description |
Nestled on a seaside peninsula, The Houghs Neck Congregational Church has been serving the community since 1894. Although not old by New England standards, we are proud of our history and connection to this beautiful place. Although small, the congregation is active and engages in activities sponsored by the church and those by local community groups. We seek a half-time settled Pastor who will provide spiritual inspiration, education and guidance through the weekly preparation and delivery of the Sunday service. While many congregations are moving to half-time positions, ours has been part-time for decades so we know how to make it work. We are a partnership and work collaboratively with our Pastor to meet the needs of the congregation and community. The church offers hybrid services with ZOOM access available for the Sunday service and many other meetings and events. We have been engaging in Listening to God with a series of activities over the past year and hope that work can continue to focus our energies toward our best purpose. The Pastor serves as Moderator of our monthly Church Council meeting and attends the monthly Diaconate meeting. The Pastor is free to attend other meetings of boards and committees but is not obligated to do so. As time permits, with the assistance of the Diaconate and church members, we would want the Pastor to reach out to our shut-ins and participate in activities and fund-raisers. We welcome all to our church and many members came to us from other faiths. We are unique, interesting and engaged. Come learn for yourself. |
