Associate Pastor for Youth and Young Adults (Re-Advertised)

Epping Baptist Church (www.eppingbaptist.org.au) has been witnessing to God’s love for people within Epping for almost 90 years. The area of Epping has been identified by NSW Government as a priority precinct where further dwellings are required to cater for more than 10,000 new residents in the next 10 years. With many people from non-English speaking backgrounds moving into Epping and surrounding suburbs, the area has experienced many changes.

With more than 20 ministries including Youth, Young Adults, Sunday Youth, Boys Brigade, and Sunday services, and increasing numbers of children and youth attending the schools in the area, the church is seeking to appoint an Associate Pastor for Youth and Young Adults to further develop ministries amongst youth and young adults. The Youth and Young Adults Pastor role is expected to be full-time with a commencement date to be negotiated by agreement. A part-time role would also be considered if required.
