Interested in a Tree Change?

 

The charge of Springsure Presbyterian Church (Presbytery of Central Queensland) is seeking expressions of interest for a new minister. This charge includes congregations in both Springsure and Emerald and an area extending from Rolleston in the East to Orion in the South and as far north as Capella.

These congregations are small in size, but are a committed group, meeting every Sunday for church, and for bible studies and prayer groups throughout the week. We also have a combined youth group fortnightly and a weekly Sunday School in Emerald. See our website at http://www.springsure.pcq.org.au/ or http://www.emerald.pcq.org.au/

We are looking to call a committed, bible-based minister, willing to take on the challenges and privileges of a rural ministry. This includes pastoring our two congregations, and reaching new people for Christ in the Central Highlands region.

For more information on this opportunity to make a change, please contact
Rev. Jon Chandler (Interim Moderator) on (07) 4922 1825, email: Email Us or
Bernard Jansen (Elder) on (07) 4982 4849, Email Us

Pre-amble: An opportunity exists in the city of Burnie for someone keen to see the Kingdom of God expand through the development of the local Presbyterian Church.

The Bass Presbytery has highlighted Burnie as a vital area for Church planting and growth.
Currently there is a small, four year old congregation which meets in rented premises.

  • Be a person who has a heart to see the Kingdom of God grow among the unchurched.
  • Have an ability to develop and implement strategies to reach people across different socio-economic groups.

Accountability:

 

  • The applicant will be appointed to work with the Bass Church Extension Committee and a Moderator who has been assigned by Presbytery.

  • Theological qualifications are desirable.
  • An understanding and acceptance of Presbyterian Church government.
  • Acceptance of the Presbyterian Church theological standards as expressed in the Westminster Confession of Faith.
