Job Description:

POSITION OVERVIEW

At Calvary Baptist Church, we are working to create a safe place where people can connect with God and with one another as we all grow in Christ. We are looking for an Associate Pastor to join us and help us in 3 key areas: developing robust ministry teams, welcome and assimilation and congregational and personal worship.

Responsibilities:

Ministry teams Every church consists of a wide variety of ministry teams that focus on specific needs. This individual would assist all the ministry teams in recruiting and training leaders, workers and volunteers. We believe every member is gifted by God and called to serve in a ministry to help others grow. To facilitate that, every believer needs to be part of a small group home community where they can grow and see where they "fit" in service. Worship Every Christian must be connected to God in worship in 3 key ways: we need congregational worship, worship in home groups and private worship. This pastor would focus on all 3 areas beginning with the Sunday morning service. He would coordinate and actively participate in the worship experience alongside the Senior Pastor. He would lead and recruit the worship team, musicians, singers and the sound booth. He would also help maintain effective communication among everyone involved. In short, he would "shepherd" the whole worship ministry. Welcome and assimilation Calvary is a growing church with many visitors. We need to enhance the pathway where first-time guests can grow into fully engaged and serving members. This would involve helping people move from visiting, next-step decisions, new believer care, baptism, and membership, leading to lifelong discipleship.

Calvary:

Calvary is a medium sized Baptist church of about a 175 people. Our goal is to make fully committed followers of Jesus by experiencing his unconditional love. We are creating a safe place where we can be His disciples through all of life's ups and downs. We are a gospel-centered church with a nice mix of not-yet believers, growing Christians, and mature followers. We are an Elder-led congregation with a great Teaching Pastor and several Elders. We have a growing Sunday school, an active youth group and a variety of other ministries. We presently have 16 home groups focused on discipleship through worship, prayer, and bible study.

Elko was settled in 1868 to support mining and ranching.

The area has two major high schools, several elementary and middle schools and a community college, which feeds the University of Nevada. Elko is a great place to live.

Compensation and Benefits:
