Senior Pastor

Do you have excellent gifts in preaching and pastoral leadership? Are you known for a heart that reflects Jesus’ in love for others, particularly those outside the church community? Are you drawn to people of different cultures? If so, Souderton Brethren In Christ Church in Souderton, PA is seeking its next Senior Pastor to help lead the congregation forward in its vision to connect, grow and serve.

Located between Allentown and Philadelphia, the suburban community of Souderton, PA is a growing area with a diverse population. Souderton Brethren in Christ Church is a family-oriented church of approximately 65+ regular attenders looking towards their next chapter of vital ministry and desiring to reach their community with the love of Jesus. Well-qualified candidates will have leadership gifts, engaging communications skills, and the ability to take an in-depth knowledge of the Bible and help people apply it to their lives. An ability to develop teams is anticipated, especially in areas of leadership, unity, and collaboration. Because of the growing diversity of both the community and the church, an ability to relate to people of all cultures is a must, especially as we desire to further engage and partner with our community, near and far. The church is looking forward to the next pastor with a vision for moving ahead in ministry and the understanding of how to partner with God in making that vision a reality.

As a part of the Brethren in Christ (BIC) family of churches, candidates should resonate with BIC theology and core values, and be licensed or willing to be licensed in the Brethren in Christ Church.  If interested in applying for this position, please send a resume and cover letter to Bishop Bryan Hoke of the Atlantic Conference of the Brethren In Christ Church at bicatlantic@bicus.org.
