Job Description:

Elevate Community Engagement in the Heart of Northern California

Nestled among the stunning landscapes of Northern California, Pathway Church offers a unique opportunity to lead and build community. Pathway Church thrives on grace and fresh ideas, and we're looking for someone passionate about leading a program that creates structure and space for our church family to connect with one another as they grow spiritually.

The Unique Opportunity:

This position is primarily responsible for deploying, sustaining, and growing a healthy small group system in our church.

At Pathway, we witness God saving hundreds of people each year, with many new faces joining us regularly. We're a bit unusual in this way, as God has significantly blessed our ministry in the area of evangelism. Many of these newcomers, especially those new to faith and church life, haven't yet learned how to form spiritual friendships or engage in conversations about faith as a natural part of life. Others may be regular attenders of our church, who are just looking to deepen their fellowship.
This is where our next Community Life Pastor comes in. You'll have the privilege of helping foster these relationships and guiding people into healthy small groups. We see this as a huge opportunity and extremely strategic position. This role will create clear structures of Small Groups, Classes, and other units to assimilate thousands of people into the family of faith that is Pathway.

The Call:
● Are you more of a gas pedal than a break pedal?
● Do you think strategically and structurally?
● Can you organize and multiply small groups on a large scale, focusing on fostering friendships and spiritual growth?
● Are you excited about equipping and multiplying leaders who can facilitate both friendship and spiritual growth?
● Do you thrive on the challenge of assimilating newcomers into community life and guiding them toward spiritual growth opportunities?
● Are you eager to see people grow in their faith, connect with others, and mature spiritually?

If you are a strategic thinker with the heart of a community builder, while aligning with our Senior Pastor's vision, we invite you to join us. Your leadership in connecting adults through small groups, and various other avenues is just what we are praying for.

Our Church:

At Pathway Church, you'd join a church where we honor the legacy of those who came before us while focusing on the future they envisioned. We're a large church with thousands coming through our doors weekly, yet our mission remains clear: to see lost people saved and believers growing in grace. For the past 22 years, our senior pastor, Bill Giovannetti has led us to search out the unsearchable riches of God's grace each week. Therefore, we deeply believe in the power of God's radical, transformative grace that heals the broken and brings new life.

We see God's grace change individual's lives each year, we celebrate hundreds and hundreds of salvations and see so many people later follow in baptism. We are also privileged to be one of the top-giving churches to missions within our denomination, the Christian and Missionary Alliance. Our family of churches is focused on reaching the nations for Christ.

Finally, our staff is fun, hardworking and committed to helping people find and follow God. We strive to be champions of both truth and grace in a culture of confusion and pain. Understand you wouldn't just be joining a church staff, you'd be joining the church that you and, if applicable, your family needs - a church that not only preaches grace, but lives grace. We like to say, you need a church more than you need a church job. This is the testimony of so many of our staff members, this is our church, and we are so blessed to be able to work in it! If this resonates with you, we want to hear from you.

We Offer:

● Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including retirement plans, full health coverage (dental and vision included), and contributions to a Health Retirement Account.
● A supportive, fun, and hardworking team environment with ample opportunities for personal and ministry growth.
● Freedom to dream big and the support to make those dreams a reality.
● A stunning location in Redding, CA, offering natural beauty and outdoor adventures that enhance quality of life, while also being a more affordable part of California.
