Adult Ministries Director | Full-Time Pastoral Opportunity

Ellerslie Road Baptist Church, a multicultural, intergenerational church in northern Alberta with regular worship attendance of 1,200 is searching for a full-time Adult Ministries Director to join its team of 20 pastors and support staff. Ellerslie is a church with a rich heritage and a bright future.

The church leadership is aligned in its vision to make disciples who love God, love people, and serve the world. Since its founding over 75 years ago, Ellerslie has grown from a small fellowship of believers to an influential church that has an active international and local cross-cultural mission and is a leader in its denomination, the Baptist General Conference of Canada. Beyond a rich heritage of Christian mission, Ellerslie today has a vibrant ministry among the many young and growing families in its community.

The church has a robust online presence and holds worship services in English and Mandarin, and hosts a Farsi language service conducted by local mission partners. Blessed with stable finances, Ellerslie now is planning for the next chapter in its history. Given our heritage, strategic location, and current organizational strength, the church is uniquely positioned to be a prevailing church in a fast-growing region that has few expressions of Christian worship.

Role Description

The Adult Ministries Director is a key member of our ministry team, gifted in working with and pastoring adults in all stages of adult life in both small and mid-sized groups.

Success in this position will require a strong walk with the Lord, a passion for discipleship, a love for people, the ability to coach, counsel, and lead others, as well as strength in administration.

Qualifications & Requirements

We are searching for a candidate with a Bachelor's degree and some theological training who has demonstrated several years of development and oversight in adult or discipleship ministry. The successful candidate must be able to work under the guidance of senior leadership and collegially with a wide variety of staff and ministry teams.
