    Default job background
    Description
    WestVillage Church is an 8-year-old church in the heart of the Westboro neighbourhood in Ottawa, Ontario.

    Westboro is a trendy, growing, family-oriented, and affluent community—although Ottawa Community Housing and the Westboro Region Food Bank also serve the area.

    Westboro was chosen as a location for a church plant because it has few evangelical churches.

    Originally a church plant by the Metropolitan Bible Church, WestVillage began to hold regular weekly services in January 2016.

    Through gospel-centred preaching and a heart for reaching the community, WestVillage quickly grew into a vibrant and dynamic community of believers.

    However, before we were fully established as a mature church, we were met with significant local challenges and the COVID-19 pandemic, which pruned us back to a point where we needed to rely completely on God.

    As a church, we continue to experience God's faithfulness and steadfast love through those He has called to WestVillage as we continue to serve and share the Good News with the community God has given us.

    WestVillage is a multi-generational, multicultural church of about 230 from various parts of Ottawa and the surrounding region (including those from nearby Quebec), who meet together on Sunday and throughout the week.

    Over the past year, WestVillage has undertaken a visioning process to seek God's guidance and direction, including involving the broader church leadership and congregation.

    To be an authentic church community radically transformed by Christ, filled with passion and purpose for the Gospel.

    Together, we reach out to share the Good News and care for our neighbours near and far, especially those who are hurting and in need.

    Our Sunday morning services are led by gospel-centred preaching from our Interim Lead Pastor and the Youth and Young Adults Pastor.

    We have a Worship and Media Lead who coordinates the in-person and online sessions, manages the online content, and leads the musical elements of the Sunday Service and the many talented musicians and artists who seek to glorify God with their gifts.

    We are blessed with a vibrant children's ministry overseen by our Children's Ministry Lead. This ministry offers Sunday School, Monday playgroups, regular weekend events, and backyard clubs in the summer. Since half our church is young families, these play an important role in connection and outreach.

    Regarding one-on-one discipleship, we have many members committed to small community groups called C-groups, which gather regularly to study the Bible, pray together, and serve their neighbourhood.

    There is also a monthly "open" C-group, a women's bible study group, and a monthly prayer gathering at the church office for all who wish to come.

    We also have recently launched a fledgling young adult and youth ministry led by our youth and young adult pastor.

    Finally, as a church that loves our community, we partner with Ottawa Community Housing (by providing meals for low-income seniors), the Westboro Region Food Bank, and other new church plants around Ottawa.

    We are blessed with many hands willing to work, as seen in our over 80 volunteers serving in various roles in our church and through our ministries in the community

    Are you a mature, humble man of prayer longing to know Jesus and to make Him known? We seek someone who loves the church and lives out his faith with integrity.

    You are a mature follower of Jesus with love for His church and its' mission (Mat 28:19-20; Mark 12:30) and, as such, you exemplify the fruit of the Spirit in your private and public conduct (Gal.

    As an Elder-led congregation, all Elders and members of the pastoral team (whether paid staff or volunteer) are expected to emulate the example set by the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ, as they guide our church (1 Tim 3:1-7; You model a godly life by prioritizing family and putting into place guardrails to protect against the spiritual, mental, physical, financial, and social demands that may be placed on them.

    You maintain a healthy balance between church and personal priorities and encourage others (staff, volunteers, etc.) by supporting healthy well-being and work-life balance in the work environment and church (e.g.

    encouraging the concept of rest and sabbath).
    You share the Good News in a way that challenges cultural norms in light of the Gospel and

    You prioritize the ministry of the Word and prayer in your personal life as well as during Sunday Services, staff meetings, and other contexts where the church is gathered.

    (You have a heart and a passion for the local church and sharing the gospel locally and globally, especially to those in need.

    Hebrews 12:
    You desire for the local church to grow spiritually and reach out with the gospel through evangelism and service (Grow:
    Deep & Wide).
    You have experience developing and implementing strategic direction for a church and/or other ministries.

    Through prayer and meditation on God's Word, you engage in big-picture thinking and can communicate God's vision to the local church.

    You have a strong desire/passion to lead the church in seeking the lost, making disciples, and equipping workers. This includes successfully leading, implementing and/or administering programs and or processes to support discipleship within the church;

    You also have a heart for reaching out to and supporting persons inside and outside of the church (neighbours near and far) who are hurting and in need.

    At WVC, this means having a heart for a diverse multi-ethnic church and coming alongside to support and celebrate those with special needs (neurodiverse, physical needs, seniors, etc.).

    You agree with and are willing to sign the Statement of Faith for the Associated Gospel Churches (AGC) of Canada and related policies;
    The lead pastor is responsible for regular teaching/preaching during Sunday morning services.

    This is your primary responsibility and the primary task of the church:
    to preach and teach the Word of God as written in the Old and New Testaments; Specifically, you will develop and plan series content for the ministry year ahead, and it is expected that you will preach approximately 3 out of every 4 Sundays, including the administration of the ordinances of baptism and the Lord's supper;
    e.g. interns, Youth and Young Adults Pastor, fellow Elders, etc.); As opportunities arise, and as time permits, you may also be requested to teach outside of a Sunday service.

    You will engage in regular personal prayer for the church and encourage a culture of prayer during Sunday Services, staff meetings, Elder meetings, and other contexts where the church is gathered.

    You will remind the church of answered prayers, the Lord's provision, and encourage individual prayer on the part of the congregation.

    In collaboration with the Elders, Board of Directors and Ministry Team Leads, you will lead in the development and implementation of a strategic plan for the church, including discipleship, community outreach and global missions.

    WVC has already conducted baseline work on developing a new vision, motto and mission statements that will serve as a foundation.

    WVC has also recently launched a new membership process and is reviewing church bylaws and governance.
    You will work with fellow Elders to oversee the refinement of the membership process and review and revision of the existing church bylaws and governance structure as we transition the corporate structure to include congregational members;

    You will work with fellow Elders, Staff and Ministry Team Leads to develop an integrated plan for discipleship, community outreach and global missions.

    You will also work with Ministry Team Leads and other volunteers to provide support and encouragement, as well as discipleship and mentoring within and across the church body.
