Ministry Description |
First Church Congregational of Methuen MA (30 minutes north of Boston) seeks a focused Interim Minister and head of staff to shepherd us to our next settled ministry. After 8 years of service, our current minister is leaving in August, 2024 and we seek a dynamic and engaging pastor to lead our nearly 300 year old congregation. We look forward to discerning our past and envisioning our future with you, as we seek our next senior pastor. The interim pastor will be responsible for preaching and leading worship, pastoral care, and working with our staff and volunteers to maintain and improve our spiritual life. You will work alongside our dedicated deacons, minister of music, and choir, to create meaningful and relevant services in a historic and sacred space in the center of Methuen. Our very capable office manager, staff, lay leaders and the congregation will gladly assist you to make our vision come to life in the ministry of our community and God. Additionally, our welcoming congregation is more than ready to work with you, guided by the Holy Spirit, to do all that is necessary to fulfill our mission: Seeking God, Caring for each other, and Improving our community. Candidates should have experience in parish ministry, including leading worship and parishioner care. Head of staff experience and strong record of pastoral and administrative leadership are also a priority. |
