Ministry Description |
Pastoral Associate Vision – The Spring Glen Church (SGC), an Open & Affirming congregation of the United Church of Christ, understands the importance of ministering to & with community members as they age, particularly those 60 and older. We envision this ministry happening through age-specific programming, intergenerational community, and individual connection. While many secular programs exist in our region to address the logistical needs related to aging, SGC inhabits a crucial niche for the theological & spiritual dimensions of aging including: processing new limitations, discerning call in retirement, grieving many different kinds of loss, assessing medical anxieties, processing logistical shifts, caretaking for loved ones, opening up to receive care, and growing into the elder identity within the congregation. Pastoral Associate Position – The Pastoral Associate will provide programming and pastoral care that prioritizes the spiritual needs of elders in our community and for people of all ages encountering theological questions related to aging. |
