Ministry Description |
St. John’s UCC has been in a very positive Shared Ministry relationship with St. Paul’s United Church of Christ in Malone, WI, for five years with St. John’s at 70% and St. Paul’s at 30% of the pastor’s time. Both churches plan to continue the Shared Ministry relationship. St. John’s is a friendly, sociable and caring congregation. Members like to gather in the narthex before worship and after worship. The atmosphere is alive with members greeting and visiting with one another. We currently have a very active Christian Education program with growing participation. The Christian Education program has been a draw for new families to attend our church. We have strong lay leadership within the church, where members step up to take the lead and lighten the load of the minister. We continue to actively seek to engage more of our younger adult members in leadership positions. We have a very active Outreach Team which plans monthly intergenerational mission/outreach projects. St John’s motto is “The small church with the big heart that does great things”. We would like to seek new areas of outreach into nearby communities. What more can our church do that will meet the needs of people in our surrounding communities? We are seeking a minister who has the interest and the desire to help us grow in these areas. We do not expect the minister to be the person doing these things but are looking for someone willing to guide us and work collaboratively with our church’s lay leaders and congregation to develop these areas of future growth and ministry. |
