Along with many and various pastoral responsibilities, the Associate Pastor will give attention to a variety of “family ministries”. It is expected that the Associate Pastor will develop and lead ministers from within the congregation to use their gifts, talents, and energy to carry out the ministries.
These ministries may include, and are not limited to:
Nursery and Children’s Church
Youth Groups
Vacation Bible School
Sunday School and Children’s Club Programs
Children’s and/or Youth Musical/Drama Programs
Mission Teams/Outreach Opportunities
Family Christian Education Opportunities
The Pastor will be a member of and work closely with the Education Committee and will serve ex officio (with voice and vote) on each of the Education Committee’s task forces, subcommittees and/or ministry teams created by the Education Committee to carry out their work. It is anticipated that the Pastor will attend Church Board meetings and, after two years of ministry with FBC, will become a member of the Church Board. (In addition, after a year of ministry, he will attend Deacon Committee meetings.)
The Pastor will engage in many other pastoral responsibilities, including regular teaching in a variety of settings and preaching on Sunday at least six times per year, and probably more.
The Pastor must be willing to consider a long-term commitment to First Baptist Church of Sturgeon Bay.
