Lead PastorWestVillage Church is an 8-year-old church in the heart of the Westboro neighbourhood in Ottawa, Ontario. Westboro is a trendy, growing, family-oriented, and affluent community?although Ottawa Community Housing and the Westboro Region Food Bank also serve the area. Westboro was chosen as a location for a church plant because it has few evangelical churches. Originally a church plant by the Metropolitan Bible Church, WestVillage began to hold regular weekly services in January 2016. Through gospel-centred preaching and a heart for reaching the community, WestVillage quickly grew into a vibrant and dynamic community of believers. However, before we were fully established as a mature church, we were met with significant local challenges and the COVID-19 pandemic, which pruned us back to a point where we needed to rely completely on God. Through these challenges, God has continually blessed us with many new faces, faithful leadership, and deeper relationships. As a church, we continue to experience God's faithfulness and steadfast love through those He has called to WestVillage as we continue to serve and share the Good News with the community God has given us. WestVillage is a multi-generational, multicultural church of about 230 from various parts of Ottawa and the surrounding region (including those from nearby Quebec), who meet together on Sunday and throughout the week. Over the past year, WestVillage has undertaken a visioning process to seek God?s guidance and direction, including involving the broader church leadership and congregation. This has led to the following new purpose and vision statements: Purpose Statement: We exist to make disciples who love God, love their neighbour, and make disciples. Vision Statement: Together, we will reach up, reach in and reach out. To be an authentic church community radically transformed by Christ, filled with passion and purpose for the Gospel. Together, we reach out to share the Good News and care for our neighbours near and far, especially those who are hurting and in need. Our Sunday morning services are led by gospel-centred preaching from our Interim Lead Pastor and the Youth and Young Adults Pastor. Elders and other ministry leaders also participate in the service in various ways, such as by leading congregational prayer. Music is also essential at WestVillage. We have a Worship and Media Lead who coordinates the in-person and online sessions, manages the online content, and leads the musical elements of the Sunday Service and the many talented musicians and artists who seek to glorify God with their gifts.We are blessed with a vibrant children?s ministry overseen by our Children?s Ministry Lead. This ministry offers Sunday School, Monday playgroups, regular weekend events, and backyard clubs in the summer. Since half our church is young families, these play an important role in connection and outreach. Regarding one-on-one discipleship, we have many members committed to small community groups called C-groups, which gather regularly to study the Bible, pray together, and serve their neighbourhood. There is also a monthly ?open? C-group, a women's bible study group, and a monthly prayer gathering at the church office for all who wish to come. We also have recently launched a fledgling young adult and youth ministry led by our youth and young adult pastor. Finally, as a church that loves our community, we partner with Ottawa Community Housing (by providing meals for low-income seniors), the Westboro Region Food Bank, and other new church plants around Ottawa. We are blessed with many hands willing to work, as seen in our over 80 volunteers serving in various roles in our church and through our ministries in the community!REQUIREMENTSAre you a mature, humble man of prayer longing to know Jesus and to make Him known?
