Searching for a Pastor
We are looking to fill the full-time position of Pastor at Cherryville Baptist Church (founded in 1948) in the heart of Hunterdon County. A small country church in a pastoral setting withroughly 50-80 people in attendance weekly. We are looking for a Pastor led to our congrgation by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and God's guiding hand. Most Importanly, the Pastor is someone who, as a disciple of Jesus Christ, will lead others in embracing he life-transforming Lordship of our crucified and risen Savor. The Pastor will lead our congregational ministry, guiding and teaching in line with Biblical truth, our doctrine, and the church covenant.
We are interested in a educated, spiritually-guided leader who fits the qualifications as described in Titus and First Timothy. The position as Cherryville Baptist Church's Pastor would include weekly sermons, teaching Sunday School, Bible Studies, prayer meetings, special sermons (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Lent, Holy Week, Easter, etc.), guiding our Deacons, Trustees, and other board postions, as well as special needs of the congregation such as pre-marital counselling, weddings, funerals, individual visitations, and spiritual care.
We do have a Music Director who would love it if our new Pastor were musically inclined, but it is not a requirement.
The congregation of Cherryville Baptist Church is strongly devoted to the study of scripture and the commission of evangelism and missions. While not always quick to volunteer in advance, our members do not leave needs unmet. A Pastor coming to our congregation should be aware of our members' love for the Lord and our church's history. In these times of national and social change, our members stand firm in the triune God who reveals himself through his Word as Creator, Savior, and Advocate; and who desires us to share His love and glory with all around us. We are called to be in this world, but not of it; to set an example to Christians and non-Christians alike to live in line with Biblical teachings.
Salary and benefits will be negotiated commensurate with experience and education. The use of the church parsonage is a huge benefit for a Pastor with a young family or for anyone looking for the convenience of walking to church on Sunday mornings.
