Job description

North 29 Campus Pastor

We are The Point Church of beautiful Virginia, and we’re looking for an authentic, secure Campus Pastor for our newly launching fifth campus on North 29 in Charlottesville.

Our mission is to Love God, Love People, and Love Life (Matthew 22:36-40 & 16:25), and we strive to make disciples who do the same. The Point started in 2009, grew exponentially by God’s hand, and we now meet in person at four campuses and online. God has given us the vision to have an ongoing presence in 50 communities, 50 cities, and in 50 countries in our first 50 years as a church.
