Seeking a Full-Time Pastor
Hickory Grove Church is seeking to fill a full-time pastor position beginning in October 2023. Hickory Grove Church is (Circa 1868), located in rural Carroll County Indiana, between Delphi and Monticello. Its statement of faith and doctrine includes the inerrancy and infallibility of the Bible, The Triune God, the Great Commission, and believer’s baptism. Its approach to ministry has included service, outreach, evangelism, community involvement, visitation, Sunday School for all ages, youth programs, women’s fellowship and missions.

We seek a pastor to help us grow spiritually together and to increase our impact on the world around us with the Good News of Jesus Christ. Interested parties should email brenda@pampel.com. The church web site is www.hickorygrove.info.
Statement of Faith
We believe in God
There is one true God, eternally existing in three Persons, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. These are equal and are one God. God created the world out of nothing and by his power he sustains all that he created. (Romans 8:22-25; Ephesians 1:13-14).
We Believe in Jesus Christ
Jesus was miraculously born of the virgin Mary (Matthew 1:20, Luke 1:35) and became flesh and blood (John 1:1-16; 29-34) without ceasing to be God. He lived a sinless life and performed many miracles to confirm his divinity. He died on the cross as a perfect sacrifice, paying the debt for our sins (Mark 10:45). On the third day after his death, he rose from the dead showing his victory over sin and death (1 Corinthians 15:3-8). He appeared to his disciples and then ascended into heaven and now sits at the right hand of God serving as our mediator.
We Believe in the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son. He makes people aware of their need for Christ (John 16:8-11, 2 Corinthians 6:11). He indwells and empowers the believer (1 John 4:13, Galatians 5:16-26). His presence in our life is a seal and guarantees that we are God’s children (2 Corinthians 12:7-11) Romans 12:4-8) to be used to help others.
We strive to know the will of God as taught in the Holy Scriptures, and in the experiences of life; to live the life of love and prayer, and to walk in the ways of the Lord.
We hold it to be the mission of the Church to fulfill the Great Commission of Matthew 2:19-20: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” We will endeavor to fulfill this command by proclaiming the Gospel, supporting evangelizing efforts at home and abroad, and teaching the Bible to the best of our ability as our Lord enables us.
We work and pray for the transformation of the world into the Kingdom of God and look with faith for the triumph of righteousness and the life everlasting.
PREPARED TO GO MAKE DISCIPLES
“Thank you Dr. Brickey for pouring so much time, love, and effort into my education to make sure that I became a nurse that is prepared to go make disciples for Christ. I will forever be grateful to you and the Yancey School of Nursing.”
