Listowel Baptist Church is seeking a pastor who is passionate about reaching and discipling youth, young adults and families through a locally missional and intergenerational approach. This role is centered on engaging and empowering the next generation to place their faith in Jesus and live it out through evangelism, discipleship, and service.

The Intergenerational Pastor will actively engage in local schools, community partnerships, and broader ministry networks, while fostering strong connections within the church family. This individual will serve with vision, develop leaders, and help maintain a culture where faith is lived out across households and generations.

The Intergenerational Pastor will also collaborate closely with the Lead Pastor, Deacons Board, and Grow Committee to support the overall vision of the church, contribute to ministry planning, and encourage spiritual growth within the church family.

Listowel Baptist Church is a church of about 80-100 people on a typical Sunday. We have a mix of all ages in our congregation and have recently seen growth with younger families and youth. We partner with local initiatives such as Youth for Christ as well as global mission partners. The area around Listowel is an agricultural community. Our building is located on the outskirts of Listowel, a growing small town, and the land around our church is beginning to be developed. We see this as an exciting opportunity for further outreach within our community.
