 PASTOR SEARCH UPDATES

We are looking for a pastor who loves Jesus deeply, teaches the Bible with clarity and depth, and genuinely cares for people. This person will preach God’s Word in a way that is both faithful to Scripture and relevant to everyday life—speaking truth with grace and consistently pointing people to Jesus.

Our ideal pastor enjoys walking alongside others: visiting, listening, praying, and offering biblical encouragement. We value someone who not only nurtures the spiritual health of our church family but also leads us in reaching out to our wider community with love and truth. We believe the church is not a place to stay comfortable, but a people sent to live out the Gospel.

We are looking for a leader who casts vision, works well with staff and the consistory, and helps guide others into deeper discipleship. This person will encourage the use of spiritual gifts within the body, helping the church grow in faith, mission, and service.

Rooted in the Reformed tradition, our new pastor will hold firmly to sound doctrine and live it out with humility, grace, and authenticity. Above all, we are praying for someone who is spiritually mature, emotionally grounded, and committed to building a healthy church where people know God, love one another, and serve the world around them.
