Come Grow With Us

Gilmanton Community Church, Gilmanton NH is seeking a teaching Pastor trained in the Big Idea. Our current interim is a GCTS graduate, and we know what we want, what we need, what we thirst for.

Gilmanton Community Church is about to celebrate our 200th anniversary next year. Our beautiful building is a historic landmark, listed in the National Register of Historic places. We are the unofficial center of the Town of Gilmanton located in New Hampshire’s rural lakes region. This area is known for recreational activities such as hiking, skiing, fishing, and boating.  We are affiliated with The American Baptist Church of VT. & NH as well as the National Association of Congregational Christian Churches.

We are a small but vibrant congregation of 49 active members and 25-35 attendees on any Given Sunday. Additionally, we have an online presence serving people unable to attend.  Our age demographic is mostly older, however there is an opportunity for growth. We know we need change and leadership. Our hearts and minds are open.

Our church has a deep presence into the community. Our church “motto” is “Share the Spirit”. We serve a weekly breakfast open to the community called the Dump Run Café (featured on NH Chronicle). Food for Thought is a monthly dinner and message open to the community. We have a Food Pantry and Thrift Store and host several community events such as a Fishing Derby and a Strawberry Festival on the 4^th of July.

              Our ideal candidate will be a man or woman with a heart to reach into New England. A heart for the lost and a heart for the saved who are true to the Lord. We are searching for a teaching Pastor. A person who values expository preaching. We hunger and thirst for the word of God.

We have an active and committed Church Council.  We are not searching for someone to run the church, but rather someone to help lead us and direct us to grow. As we grow your position will grow as well. The position is bi-vocational, approximately 20 hours a week. Parts of 2 days in the office and Sunday. We are flexible.
