Senior Pastor

The Bridge Christian Community is searching for a senior pastor. Our current lead pastor of 13 years recently accepted a senior pastor position with the church he came to us from. We are a church of about 150 and our mission is to nurture a culture of bridge building between God, His family and those here, near and far. The church was planted in 2001 by Christian Evangelistic Mission of  Iowa. We started out as a mobile church meeting in several locations for Sunday worship, but now own a building in the heart of the city of Dubuque. Our target group is reaching 18 – 40 year old’s with an emphasis on men. The kind of person we are looking for will meet the Biblical requirements of an Elder, have a background in Restoration Movement churches and be gifted in preaching and teaching. We would prefer someone who tends to be more of extrovert. We are also looking for a person who is comfortable with shared leadership (not a CEO) and has leadership development skills. Especially important is having experience connecting with young adults in our target group.
