OH – MEDINA – PASTOR OF MINISTRY ENVIRONMENTS – Grace Church
Grace Church is a vibrant, growing church that is pursuing a vision of planting 30 campuses in 30 years. Doing something this audacious requires great people who have a desire to launch a new work while remaining connected to a larger church.

In order to fulfill our purpose to be an ever-expanding movement of the gospel, the campuses of Grace Church are linked together by a commitment to our shared purpose, vision and values. Each campus of Grace Church is led by a Campus Pastor who is entrusted with the purpose, vision and values, and who is responsible for exegeting their cultural context and raising up indigenous leaders who will extend and expand as a movement. While the vision and values of the movement of Grace Church are consistent across all the campuses, the ministry methods are established locally by the campus pastor and his staff for the purpose of reaching their local community.

OH – COLUMBUS – CAMPUS PASTOR – Grace Fellowship Upper Arlington
Grace Fellowship in Columbus, OH is looking for an experienced Campus Pastor.

We experienced great times of church-wide prayer, bible study, and small group times around the future of how God can use us to reach people.

Columbus, Ohio, is the 15th largest city in the United States. The region has a population of 2 million and is the second fastest growing metropolitan area in the Midwest.
