Job description

Full Time Church Planter in Residency Position – Movement Church, Port Charlotte, FL

Movement Church is seeking to multiply it’s Kingdom impact by developing and deploying a church planter in residence. Movement is a fast-growing church of more than one thousand people that are inviting others to know Jesus, love others, and live changed. In partnership with the Alliance Southeast, they desire to extend their impact by planting a church that will become a fully mature congregation within the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA).

This residency will last two years as a full-time staff position at Movement Church with the goal of continuing as a full-time staff position as the planting pastor of the resulting church plant. Applicants should have experience leading at an executive level in churches of 200 or more and have a heart for reaching the unchurched and those far from God. Ideal applicants will have solid communication and people skills along with the ability to form and execute a clear ministry strategy.

While previous experience is required, the ideal applicant will desire to be coached and developed into Movement’s ministry model and culture. Additional coaching will be provided by the Alliance Southeast in the areas of disciple making, leadership development, soul care, and fundraising methods. The goal will be for the final six months of this residency to be focused on core team building and launch with access to existing campus facilities being made available for training and soft-launch programs and services.

Candidates must be able to meet licensing and ordination requirements with the C&MA which includes having previously completed at least thirty hours of theological education at an accredited school or through a C&MA approved program.
