Ministry Description |
Thriving congregational church in a picturesque Midwest small city is looking for an interim Senior Pastor to assist us in transitioning from the retirement of our long-term Senior Pastor through the search, calling and installation of our new faith leader. First Congregational United Church of Christ in Appleton, WI is a strong and dynamic, open-hearted, and open-minded, Christ-centered fellowship with the largest congregation of this denomination in Wisconsin. This candidate should be positive, upbeat, and open to discussion, learning and exchange as opposed to doctrine. We are fiercely open and inclusive, with an active membership and lay leaders that support our ministry within our congregation, our community, and our outreach efforts nationally and internationally. Our church's mission statement is a good summary of our activities and commitments as a congregation: "Celebrating the blessing of God's love, sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ, and trusting the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we strive to grow as disciples in Christian Faith and service - building a world fit for all God's children." Worship is the beating heart of this church, and this congregation makes significant efforts to keep worship vital, relevant, moving, multi-generational and meaningful. We look forward to sermons that challenge us to learn in our faith and apply that learning to our lives and in our community. There is an equally vigorous commitment to Christian education and spiritual development, offering a wide array of opportunities from theological book study groups to Yoga classes, Bible studies, support and fellowship groups, meditation and centering sessions, and retreat weekends. Come to Appleton and see how our vibrant congregation matches our stellar education, sports, the arts, with facilities and activities designed for all seasons in a region that is both welcoming and affordable. |
