Ministry Description We are seeking a new Associate Minister who will bring energy, creativity, love and deep faith with a particular focus on nurturing our youth. In addition, they will participate in Sunday worship as a liturgist and preacher, be an active member of our pastoral care team, and intentionally welcome the broader Wellesley and Metrowest community into our programs and membership at the Wellesley Hills Congregational Church (“Hills Church”). While we are seeking a dynamic leader for our youth program, we are open to the gifts and passions that a candidate will bring and are willing to discuss creative ways to serve our youth. As a large suburban church, a thriving youth program is essential to our continued vitality and growth. At the same time, we realize that ministry is rapidly changing, and our ideal candidate may not look like candidates in the past. For over 175 years the Hills Church has emphasized liturgy, exceptional music, social justice, and service to our community and the broader world. We have recently invested in a major renovation of our facilities, funded by a successful capital campaign; called an experienced, energetic Senior Minister; and hired an exceptional Director of Music who is committed to recreating a strong music program for children and youth. The Hills Church has hosted the Wellesley Food Pantry since its founding and is a lead congregation of MetroWest Family Promise, an organization that provides shelter, food and comprehensive support to families with children who are facing homelessness. We have a long history of active participation in other service activities beyond Wellesley and Metrowest, including, but not limited to, Boston, Cambridge, Mass., Central America, and South India.
