Pastor of Discipleship and Missions
Overview:
West Acres loves Jesus and wants the world to know Him! Our vision is to lead people into a relationship with Christ, develop them into Christ-like maturity, equip them for their life ministry, and glorify God in all we do. We are a multi-generational church in one of the most desirable areas to live in the United States according to money.com.
Our lead pastor of 35 years recently retired from the pastorate, and the church called our previous Pastor of Discipleship and Missions to be his successor. We are in a season of change, and we are excited that God is leading us into the next chapter in the life of West Acres Baptist Church!
We are eager to grow and expand our discipleship ministries and mission efforts, and we are looking for someone to lead these two vitally important ministries. If you have a passion for discipleship and missions and God is leading you to pursue this opportunity, we look forward to talking to you!
