First Christian Church
First Christian Church in Roanoke Rapids, NC, is searching for our next Lead Minister who will help lead us in our desire to connect people with Christ and one another. First Christian Church is associated with the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ. We are a church that is vibrant but not charismatic, conservative but not legalistic, loving but not universalist, and puts a high emphasis on baptism and the Lord’s Supper. First Christian Church has an average worship attendance in the person of approximately 200, and many join us via Facebook, our website, and church app. This is an excellent opportunity to join an established, healthy staff, including a full-time church administrator, full-time youth minister, part-time director of children’s ministries, and part-time worship director. Visit our website at fccrr.org to learn more about us. The ideal candidate will demonstrate a love for the Lord, a desire to grow both spiritually and professionally, a love for people, a love for teaching and preaching God’s Word, and a desire to embrace our local culture and community. This candidate will demonstrate the fruit of the Spirit and have the qualities listed in 1 Timothy 3:2-7 and Titus 1:6-9. The candidate should have some experience leading a church staff.
