Middle River Baptist Church in Baltimore is searching for a full-time Lead Pastor. The church celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2025, but is in need of revitalization. The congregation is aging in a younger and diverse community. Believing that "Middle River Baptist exists to glorify God by changing everyday people into joyful followers of Jesus Christ", we are prayerfully seeking God's leading in our search. Those interested and believe God may be calling them to this position should possess the biblical qualifications in 1 Timothy 3:2-7 and Titus 1:4-6 and are certain that God has called them to "feed" and "tend" this congregation in pastoral ministry. They must be of sound doctrine and able to develop leaders who practice and teach doctrine consistent with the infallible Word of God. We adhere to the Baptist Faith and Message 2000 which we believe is rooted in the authority of the Holy Bible. The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate an evangelistic mindsest and lifestyle. This includes equipping others to have the same desire and knowledge to "go and make disciples." We believe that feeding, clothing, and ministering to the needs of the lost ahcieves nothing of soul-saving value if we do not proclaim the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Written resumes should be sent to: Senior Pastor Search Committee, Middle River Baptist Church, 610 Middle River Road, Middle River, MD 21220 Electronic resumes should be set to: office@middleriver.org
