Notes: The Saint Mary's County, Maryland, Church of Christ is initiating a search for a full time preacher/minister. Our present pulpit minister is retiring from the pulpit after 18 years of service. The congregation is served by three elders and five deacons. The church is financially secure, and we are capable of offering an above average salary and benefits package, including relocation, health insurance, and other benefits.
We are a congregation of about 200 members with an approximate average Sunday morning attendance of somewhat less than 150. The congregation is in a military community, with the dynamic Patuxent Naval Air Station nearby. Many members of the congregation are in some way associated with U.S. Navy or Government work, and some are small businesspersons or teachers. Because we are in a military community, our membership fluctuates somewhat.
We believe that the Lord will guide us in our selection; therefore, the following preferences are not "graven in stone with an iron stylus and lead." We seek:
Excellent pulpit and sermon delivery skills
Early mature years, roughly early forties
Family is preferred, with children up to high school sophomore
Capable class teacher for juniors and adults
Prefer post-secondary education
While we naturally expect candidates to be personable and relate well to members of the congregation, candidates should express their other interests such as personal work, visitation, and outreach.
Saint Mary's County is a very historic area. It is the southern-most county of Maryland on the inland shore, located on the Southern Maryland Peninsula, bounded by the Chesapeake Bay to the south, the Potomac River to the west, the Patuxent River to the east, and Charles County Maryland to the north, and St. Mary's City was the first colonial capital of Maryland.

We have high expectations for our youth minister and our youth program. We recognize the need for training, development, spiritual and personal growth in this position. Our salary and benefits depend on experience and degree but we try to be generous. We cannot offer health insurance. We do require our youth minister be married or engaged.
