Agape Presbyterian Church, a PCUSA church in San Ramon, CA (approximately 35 miles from San Francisco in the East Bay), is seeking a part-time English Ministry (EM) Pastor to provide leadership and vision to our church ministry.

Agape’s EM Pastor will work closely with the other ministries to ensure the health and stability of the entire church.

RESPONSIBILITIES
The EM Pastor will:
• Have general supervision of all the activities related to the EM.
• Preach God’s message during Sunday services and organize additional activities for spiritual growth among the congregation (i.e., Bible study).
• Provide overall training and inspiration to the servant leadership team to ensure that they are maturing in faith, enhancing their skills and developing spiritually.
• Demonstrate a shepherd’s heart that genuinely loves and cares for the congregation members.
