RUMSON, NJ

Job Description St. George's is a vibrant, joyful congregation where harmony is a hallmark and worship is uplifting. Parishioners of every age enrich our lives, from young families whose energy renews us to older members who offer wisdom. "Feel the fellowship," a phrase we use when setting up for our church fair, captures the spirit of any gathering at St. George's and extends to all who come through our doors. We are a welcoming and supportive community, always ready to embrace newcomers. The parish has active ministries with youth and adults. St. George's also has a strong outreach mission focused on partnership with trusted organizations serving neighbors in need. St. George's has both a Rector and Curate. Our staff includes a youth and family minister, secretary, sexton, music director/organist, and communications leader. We are supported by a Rector Emerita and Parish Associate. As we look ahead to our new Rector, we especially value personal qualities like warmth and humor, the relationship you build with our parish, and the way you care for those within it. We pray, therefore, for a spiritual leader who listens with their heart and loves each and every one of us as expressed through pastoral care—especially visits to homes and hospitals—and through homilies that connect scripture to our daily lives, offering a meaningful take-home message.
