THE BIG PICTURE...
Valentine Berean Bible Church (valentinebereanchurch.com) is seeking an Associate Pastor.
OVERVIEW
Valentine Berean Church is located in the town of Valentine, Nebraska, population 2600. We are primarily a farming and ranching area. As we are relatively remote (it is two hours to Walmart and five hours to major airports), we are the trading center for north central Nebraska. It is not uncommon for our congregation members to drive an hour to church, and that is not all on paved roads.
We are a church that has seen growth over the last five years and are currently seeing about 150 people attend worship over two Sunday morning services. As such, the traditional demographic of our church is changing - it is getting younger. We whole heartily embrace the sounds of children in the worship services, as they are the future of the church. We are currently building a new worship center (shell is completed) with the hope of finishing it by the summer of 2024. We are an Elder led church with Deacons responsible for implementing the vision and direction cast by the Elders and Senior Pastor. Volunteers make up the majority of the "doer's" in the church. We have started a small group ministry, which we wish to expand. We have a great children's ministry, but have not had a vibrant youth ministry as of late.
This can be hard to articulate, but this is the Sandhills of Nebraska. It is a different mindset and people you will find here. We tend to be self-reliant and will do whatever it takes to help our neighbors. Without each other, we cannot survive. As such, it can be a very tight knit community. You can make yourself accepted and integrated with the town and community and make life-long friends.
