Active

Green Valley Baptist Church, located in Lebanon, Virginia, is prayerfully seeking a full-time Senior Pastor to lead our congregation into the next chapter of our history.  Established in 1895, our church is deeply rooted in Russell County, nestled rurally in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains.  With an active congregation averaging around 115 individuals attending our Sunday morning service, we are a close-knit, multigenerational church with a traditional worship style, focused on learning, growing, and serving others.  This role calls for a compassionate and spiritually grounded leader to shepherd our congregation, foster spiritual growth, and strengthen connections both within the church and beyond.

The ideal candidate will be a strong person of faith with a servant’s heart for preaching and teaching God’s word faithfully, while also establishing and growing genuine connections with members of the congregation through providing encouragement and excellent pastoral care.   Core responsibilities include delivering engaging, Biblically-based sermons, leading Bible studies, and serving our members in times of both celebration and sadness.  Leadership responsibilities include collaborating with church staff, deacons, committees, and members of the congregation in accomplishing the vision and mission of the church.

The ideal candidate will possess a degree from an accredited seminary or divinity school, ordination as a Baptist minister, and relevant pastoral experience.  Our next pastor must possess a strong Biblical knowledge, excellent communication and leadership skills, and a heart for ministry in a small-town traditional church setting.  Above and beyond any level of education, experience or training we are seeking an individual whose relationship with Christ is most evident through the way they live their daily life and serve and relate with others.  The successful candidate will possess the joy of the Lord, exhibit a friendly and outgoing personality, and value genuine relationships and southern hospitality.

Interested candidates are encouraged to review our Church Profile and Position Description at www.greenvalleybaptist.church/pastorsearch and apply by submitting a resume, cover letter, statement of faith, and sermon samples to [email protected].
