We are delighted that you have an interest
in pastoring on Southwestern Ohio District. Our district
is composed of 82 churches in 12 counties in the Southwestern
part of Ohio. The major cities are Dayton and Cincinnati
on the IR-75 corridor. You can learn more about the district
by clicking
here. We believe that pastoring (serving as a God-called
shepherd) is an awesome privilege and responsibility.
We do not use resumes, but ask each
candidate to complete a questionnaire and return to the
district office. This questionnaire may be downloaded into Microsoft
Word, saved to your hard drive, completed, and then
printed and mailed to the district office with a picture
of the pastor and family. You may email the questionnaire
for prior consideration; however before a pastor may be
called to a ministry assignment the document must be signed
and dated.
Before you complete the questionnaire,
you need to be appraised that just as you are looking for
an exciting place to serve Christ, we are looking for pastors
who have a pattern of supporting the global mission of the
Church of the Nazarene by paying all assigned budgets in
full and who have a record of growth in both the current
assignment and previous assignments. Below you will find
a link to Expectations for Excellence in Ministry. Please
carefully read this document so you will have an understanding
of what is expected of pastors serving on this district
before completing the questionnaire.
Below you will find a link to the Questionnaire.
Your questionnaire will be acknowledged by our office. (If
you cannot download the questionnaire you may request one
be sent to you by mail).
Thank you for your interest in Southwestern
Ohio and may God bless your ministry. |
