ROLE DESCRIPTION
The primary purpose of this role is to champion the cause of Maturity at Grace City by preaching on Sundays and overseeing our small groups ministry. Part of our vision as a church includes church planting, so the successful applicant would need to be able to build a strategy that allows for groups to grow across multiple locations. In the ideal world, the successful candidate would also be willing and able to plant Grace City’s first church/campus in 2-3 years time (though this is not strictly necessary). To prepare for this, the successful candidate would also be expected to spend the next 2-3 years learning the Grace City DNA and undergoing training in church planting.
