Leaside United Church is looking for a minister who will continue to build excitement in our congregation, who will lead us into the future and help bring us to the next level in all we do. We are located conveniently in the heart of Toronto. We want to accelerate our journey of growth in the ministries of education of all ages, theological integrity, and appreciation for progressive up-to-date worship. We are looking for someone who can relate to all ages, someone who can work in a team, who is well-read and familiar with the latest in biblical scholarship (i.e. a life-long learner), and who can make it relevant through preaching but also through other aspects of the call to Leaside United Church.
We need someone to be a champion for worship, who will help us create alternative worship experiences, with different models of music and style, that will appeal to people other than our core group. We are looking for a person who will actively support the expansion of our outreach ministry, and who will offer support to our growing understanding of stewardship.
We are looking for someone who can empower us to become the best Christians we can be and to tell our story in exciting and dynamic ways.
This calling is effective November 1, 2015 or later as can be negotiated. Interested candidates should submit a covering email and resume, no later than October 21, 2015 to rlawford@sympatico.ca. Applications will be accepted until a suitable individual is confirmed.
