Ministry Description |
St. Paul’s United Church of Christ, guided by the UCC Statement of Faith, is a vibrant Open and Affirming church located in central PA in the borough of Selinsgrove. With a membership of about 300, a regular weekly attendance at Sunday services of 80-90, and a stable financial picture, we support a number of ministries for adults, children, and our local community. St. Paul's is a church whose strengths include a sense of community and an unwavering commitment to being Open & Affirming. We extend an extravagant welcome to all people. We are a church that cares deeply about each other and the broader community, actively engaging in outreach and service to make a positive impact. Music is an essential part of our worship, with a vibrant music ministry that includes wonderful choirs. St. Paul's is outward-looking, actively involved in ministries like the Loaves & Fishes food bank ministry, the Green Team focusing on sustainability, our Prayer Shawl ministry, and the Card and Caring ministry, demonstrating our love for others through action. We are a multi-generational community, united in fellowship and a shared love of God, always willing to grow and serve together. A recently completed vision and strategic planning process led us to the recognition that we need additional leadership from an Associate Pastor to help us better do God’s work and achieve the goals of our plan. Ideally the Associate Pastor called to St. Paul’s will be firmly committed to our Open and Affirming mission, a supportive partner to the Pastor, and an innovative leader of our youth and small group ministries. To determine the best candidate, we solicited feedback from the congregation on what characteristics of St. Paul’s are important to include in this description and what characteristics of an Associate Pastor will lead us to the best candidate for our church. |
