Senior Pastor

Lacey Chapel

Lacey, WA

Lacey Chapel is calling a Pastor who will shepherd our congregation in accordance
with our Mission: “To exalt God, introduce others to Jesus as Savior, and produce
mature followers of Christ.” We are seeking a Pastor with a passion for developing
mature disciples of Jesus Christ as well as reaching out to the surrounding
community with the Gospel. We are seeking a pastor who can build upon the
current foundation and gifts God has provided our church and help us to grow in
numbers and impact in the local community.

Lacey Chapel is an Independent Bible church of around 50 Christ-centered people
who love, value, and respect one another. We are a small and aging congregation
that has a desire to rebuild for the future, located on a major arterial road in one of
the fastest growing and most unchurched communities in Washington. We own
our church building, parsonage and youth building on 5+ acres debt free.

Lacey Chapel believes in a Free Grace gospel, versus a Calvinist or Lordship
position. We hold to the historic doctrines of the faith and believe in
dispensational theology. We believe the Bible is God’s word. It reveals God, His
gracious gift of eternal life through the death of His Son, the wonderful blessings
that God has given to believers, how to live the Christian life, our future hope in
Christ, and many other essential biblical truths. We believe in a literal,
grammatical, historical hermeneutic. We believe that diligent study of God’s Word
enables believers to live holy lives.

In light of these beliefs our desire is to teach the Bible accurately, while
encouraging each other in the faith, and to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to the
lost world which surrounds us. Our services center on the exegetical teaching of
the Holy Scriptures, and Sunday School classes include verse by verse studies of
the Word and other doctrinal issues.

A detailed Statement of Beliefs can be found at our website (laceychapel.org). A
summary of current Ministries, description of our leadership team, and other
information about our church is available at the same website.

Contact: Interested candidates should apply by sending a letter of interest and resume to
Pastoral Search Committee, Lacey Chapel, 6646 Pacific Ave SE, Lacey, WA 98503 or electronically to FGClark@comcast.net.

Team Member

Christ Fellowship

Franklin, TN

Youth/Associate Pastor

Grace Community Bible Church

Richmond, TX

Grace is seeking either a Youth Pastor or an Associate Pastor who could skillfully handle the youth ministry but be expected to probably phase out into a purely associate role in time.  This is because we see a likely need for an A.P. in a few years.  The main responsibilities for this position would require the following:

Major Responsibilities:

Leading a Wednesday night youth meeting (Jr. High / High School)

Leading a Sunday morning Bible class for youth (note:  volunteers help with teaching duties for Wednesday and Sunday mornings so only one teaching prep. per week)

Organizing youth events (including retreats, DNOW, and a week-long summer youth project at City Church in Amarillo)

Opportunities to preach would be provided if the individual hired was able to do so–especially if hired as an AP

Building relationships with the students in order to help them grow in their faith.

Qualifications and skills required:

We are seeking a spiritually mature individual who has a good amount of experience working with youth.   We are also looking for someone with either a Bible College or preferably a Seminary degree.  Our preference is for a man who is married (one time) or is single and soon to be married.

The skills and strengths needed would vary somewhat, depending if the person is interested in being a YP or being an AP till we later hired a YP.  However, either way we would want someone who has good abilities in teaching  (preaching would be a bonus) and has organizational / administrative skills, as these two areas are a struggle for our current YP (which he realizes and is one of the reasons, with our blessing, that he is seeking another job).  Abilities with Praise and Worship are a plus because the youth have a nice stage and equipment, and we have several musically inclined youth.  We really want someone who has a good work ethic, is able to work well with others, and able to handle constructive criticism.
