Job Description for Pastors
Pastor
The Missionary Church Constitution has an outline of the duties of the Pastor that says: “A pastor shall be an example to the flock of God by keeping himself free from all worldly entanglements and above reproach in all matters of conduct and finance. It shall be his duty to preach the Word; to exercise prayerful and diligent oversight of the church, watching for the souls thereof as one that must give account; and to seek earnestly the salvation of the lost, that in all things he may be approved unto God. The pastor shall be recognized as head of the local church and shall be responsible for the public services and general promotion of the church activities. He shall be an advisory member of all committees. It shall be his prerogative, with the approval of the church board, to arrange for all special meetings and to engage the necessary help for the same.”
Based on this and the local church’s culture and vision it is important for the pastor and the church that a clear job description is developed when looking to engage a pastor.
