Being Part of a Movement That’s Changing Lives
At Friends Church, we’re becoming a community of authentic Christ-followers compelled to change our world. We’re passionate about helping people grow in faith and live on mission together—and we’re looking for a leader who shares that vision. If you love developing leaders, building authentic community, and helping people experience life transformation through God’s Word, this is where you belong.

The Opportunity
As the Life Group Pastor overseeing Women’s and Singles Groups, you’ll play a vital role in cultivating a thriving groups culture where spiritual growth and belonging flourish. You’ll:
  • Develop and equip leaders to shepherd their groups with purpose and confidence.
  • Create on-ramps that help people connect into community through Rooted and Life Groups.
  • Champion discipleship rhythms—prayer, serving, generosity, and storytelling—that reflect the heartbeat of the early Church.
  • Shepherd and inspire individuals to live as fully devoted followers of Jesus.
Your leadership will help hundreds of people move from attending church to living as the Church—together.
