Hull’s Memorial Baptist Church | Falmouth, VA

Hull’s Memorial Baptist Church in Falmouth, VA is seeking a senior pastor with a seminary degree for a small church with an active membership of approximately 60.

HMBC was founded in 1888 as a community church, which was the result of one woman’s work.  Sally Hull wished to teach children about the love of Jesus, so she started a Sunday School in a brush arbor.  The first church building was built about 10 years later, and was used, with some additions, until 1959, when a new building on adjoining property was built.  The first full-time pastor was hired in 1950.  There have been 8 full-time pastors since then. In 1985, a large addition was added, including a fellowship hall, large kitchen, 4 classrooms, 2 offices, library, and two bathrooms.

Person should be an effective speaker who is comfortable with traditional worship and have a strong commitment to developing the spiritual lives of our congregation and our community.  Key elements to our ministry are outreach, missions and developing a program for youth and children.  The majority of our congregation believes that the Bible teaches:  “Christ offers the gift of salvation to all.  We witness to everyone, knowing that anyone can potentially be saved if he or she will only confess to being a sinner, repent and trust in Jesus.  Each person decides whether or not to trust in Christ for salvation.”  Our church’s biblical understanding of pastoral leadership is as follows:  While serving as the spiritual leader of the church, the pastor should expect the congregation as a whole to retain much responsibility for considering and voting on significant church matters in church-wide business meetings and through committees elected by the congregation.  Our church believes that women are accepted into all leadership positions in the church.  Although we are seeking a full-time pastor, we will also consider a bi-vocational candidate.

The approximate salary for this position is between $35,000 and $45,000 (including Social Security Allowance) Note:  In discussing the salary “package”, individual may use part of it for other benefits as they see fit.
