Associate Pastor – Church By the Bay
Posted: 30/05/24
About the Role
Associate Pastor
Part-time 0.8 FTE
An opportunity exists to work alongside the Lead Pastor of Church by the Bay (CBtB) as an Associate Pastor (part-time) to grow the missional heartbeat of our church – to see the gospel of Jesus make a holistic impact in our region and beyond.
While the main purpose of this role is to aid the Lead Pastor in the overall vision and mission of the church, a key aspect is the oversight of the Youth and Young Adult ministries. This role will provide pastoral support to the ministry leaders currently facilitating the Youth and Young Adult areas, in addition to discipling and developing new leaders within these programs and other areas of church life and community to which these young people may feel called. There is also the opportunity to develop your upfront leadership skills, including preaching/teaching (this would be complementary to your role, not the focus).
About Church By the Bay (Portarlington)
CBtB is a multigenerational family church of approximately 130 people. We are 31 years old this year and consider ourselves an evangelical, charismatic Baptist church. Sunday morning worship aims to be both family and individual-friendly. We also have a Sunday evening worship service every 1st and 3rd Sunday, which a group of young adults facilitate.
We strongly emphasise our small groups and are blessed to have a strong cohort of faith-active young people aged from late primary to late 20s. We’ve intentionally sought to develop a culture of discipleship and mission, with many of our young people going on both local missions (Red Frogs, SUFM beach mission, Youth Dimension, Blue Moose), as well as interstate and overseas. We have a heart to work collaboratively with the Church across our region (Bellarine Peninsula).
