Worship Leader & Ministry Coordinator Northampton Christian Church; NhCC

Dear Friend,

Northampton Christian Church (NhCC) in Hampton, Virginia is currently asking the Lord to help us fill our full-time position of Worship Leader/Ministry Coordinator.

NhCC is a non-denominational, independent Christian Church, located in Hampton, VA which is approximately 30 miles northwest of Virginia Beach, Va. NhCC celebrated its 63rd anniversary in May of this year. Our Sunday service consists of a balanced style of worship including traditional and contemporary elements of worship. We currently average 85 people each Sunday. Our church building has an auditorium with a seating capacity of approximately 300, a detached garage/picnic shelter, and a detached 1,800 square foot building with a kitchen useful for fellowship, meetings, and training events.

The property encompasses approximately 6.5 acres. Our church maintains good financial health and seeks to grow our ministry here in the Hampton Roads area.

Specifically, we are seeking a full-time person that is able to meet our current needs of both a Worship Leader and Ministry Coordinator. All candidates must be baptized followers of Jesus; committed to loving the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind and strength; loving others as themselves; committed to living for Jesus; following only the Word of God; and actively seek to make disciples of Jesus.

They must also be willing to submit to the Biblical authority, teaching and leadership of the Elders who are given the God-ordained responsibility of leading God’s church, and without reservation, they must agree, not just in action, but in their heart of hearts, with the essential doctrines of Northampton Christian Church derived from God’s Word.

Currently, our staff consists of our Lead Minister, a temporary part-time Worship Leader, wonderful volunteers managing the front office and other areas, and we are excited about the hiring of this new staff position! We have budgeted for 2025 and beyond for a full-time Lead Minister and a full-time Worship Leader/Ministry Coordinator.

The compensation package shall be $40-$50,000 annually, consistent with the person’s training, education, skill set and experience. Additionally, the position includes vacation time and the opportunity to join the NhCC 403(b) matching retirement plan. This position will require most hours to be served in the office each week. This position allows for one day off per week, in addition to having off Saturdays.
