As a church we are praying for God to send us a new Pastor who, with a shepherd's heart, will lead us into a new season of growth and serving God.
Could that be you here in Strathaven?
Building on the foundation of current ministries, membership and gifting, we desire someone who will help us discern God’s will for a new season of church life and lead us in being faithful to his calling. We are excited about what the future of our church could look like, and we’re committed to allowing God to take us there.
We’re a church of 52 members located in the heart of a small rural town in South Lanarkshire. Over recent years the town has become a popular commuter community for Glasgow and Edinburgh, in particular for young families due to the good reputation of the local high school. Our heart is to reach out to these families and see them added to our church.
Our aspiration for the new Pastor is that they will have a warm heart for people and a deep love of God’s word. He should also have the ability to engage winsomely with people both within the church and the community across a range of contemporary theological and cultural issues. His instincts will be for collaborative working within the established leadership team, whilst leading in discipling and developing spiritual gifting.
