Listowel, ON
Listowel Evangelical Missionary Church is looking for a Part-Time Worship Director.
Job Overview:
The Goal of the LEMC Worship Director is to see God become #1 in the life of each person at LEMC, by helping us notice God, worship God, connect with God and follow God. The Worship Director will primarily use corporate singing and prayer, team leadership, and relational disciple-making to accomplish this task. It’s required that this person has: a mature, committed relationship with Jesus, a humble character, a love for people, and skills in music, singing, and communication. Leadership skills and disciple-making skills are an asset, but can be developed along the way.
Vision for Hiring:
LEMC has a history of volunteer worship leaders/directors. The goal of hiring a paid Worship Director is not to increase complexity in our corporate worship (this would create dependency rather than empowerment), nor is it to facilitate musical perfection (this would discourage recruitment of newer musicians/singers). The goal of a paid role is to increase the investment in our worship volunteers and culture, to see sustainability for volunteers, deeper spiritual formation, and the multiplication of worship leaders.
Job Expectations are based on 10 hours per week, on average, including Sunday mornings and Thursday evenings.
