Associate Pastor Calvary Community Church of Brea

The Associate Pastor will work closely with the pastoral staff of Calvary Community, caring for the needs of the flock with an emphasis on young adults (18- to 30-year-olds).

• Leading Young Adults ("Refuge"):
  Teaching the Word of God, organizing events (for example winter retreats or outreach opportunities), counseling, shepherding and equipping young adults to live in sincerity and faithfulness to God (Joshua 24:14).
• Preaching and Teaching:
  Faithfully teaching the Bible, speaking truth into the lives of the congregation, and preaching during weekend services as part of the rotation.
• Administration and Oversight:
  Supervising 2 to 5 volunteers and managing a departmental budget of $50,000 to $100,000. The pastor must have adequate administrative skills to ensure smooth operation of the ministries for which he is responsible.
• Expanding Ministry Reach:
  Depending on the candidate’s specific gifts, responsibilities could include oversight of Adult Discipleship, Missions, and/or Local Outreach.
• Pastoral Care:
  Investing relationally in the congregation, speaking into people’s lives, balancing moral standards with grace and forgiveness.
• Long-Term Expectation: A major underlying responsibility is for the candidate to immerse himself and his family in the church’s unique culture and DNA.
