Various clergy opportunties Job Details:
36 “When [Jesus] saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matthew 9
In central and western NSW, we find ourselves with a bountiful harvest but too few labourers. Of our 28 parishes, 13 are in need of clergy—not so much to ‘run a church’, but to serve as loving shepherds to our people; to share the love of Jesus, open his Word, and provide guidance, nourishment, and protection.
Our communities in need include: * Bourke-Brewarrina
- Condobolin
- Coolah-Dunedoo
- Coonamble
- Cudgegong Valley
- Cumnock
- Dubbo
- Gilgandra
- Kelso
- Narromine
- Nyngan
- Trundle
- Warren
While some of these parishes will require financial assistance, we have unwavering faith that God will provide.
Ministry in our regional and rural areas is distinct—it emphasises people over programs, hands-on pastoral contact, and being a recognisable figure in the community (which itself opens doors of opportunity). When people sense your genuine love and care for them, they will be open and ready to be inspired in their relationship with Jesus.
Will you be fresh out of Bible college at the end of the year with a wealth of pre-college experience? It might be the perfect time to embed yourself in a community for the long haul. Bring your family, put down roots, and make a difference in the name of Jesus. If you’re seeking more experience first, we can explore an assistant/training role for a couple of years.
Our mission is “SHARING JESUS FOR LIFE” and we prayerfully ask you to consider joining us.
We understand the journey to ministry is unique for everyone, and we’re open to various pathways. Graduates from MOORE, SMBC, Ridley, QTC, BST, St Mark’s (for example) are all welcome to enquire.
Please to discuss these opportunities further. We are flexible and would be delighted to arrange a visit, phone call, or zoom meeting at your convenience. Thank you!
