Orland Park Christian Reformed Church

Director of Worship

Orland Park,
Illinois
Orland Park CRC seeks a Director of Worship to partner with the Lead Pastor in shaping reverent, joyful, Christ-exalting worship. You will plan and lead services, recruit and disciple a growing team of volunteers, and cultivate a culture of humble excellence—where Scripture, song, and sacrament direct our attention to the glory of God. If you love the local church, enjoy making much of Jesus, and excel in developing musicians spiritually and musically, this is a great position for you!

Why We Love This Opportunity

This is a rare chance to help lead worship in a church that truly believes the gospel changes everything — not just emotions on Sunday, but lives every day of the week. Their Lead Pastor is looking for someone who will draw the people in and lead them to God’s throne.  You’ll get to shepherd a team, work closely with a staff that values collaboration and depth, and help shape worship that is both faithful and lively.

A great match for this position would be:

  • Draws People Into Worship: Knows how to lead people to God’s throne through music! This is number 1 for Orland Park. They want someone to engage their people and grow this ministry.
  • Musical Excellence: Leads musically with competence and confidence while keeping people—not performance—at the center. Creates services that feel cohesive, reverent, and alive. Builds a band that sound great while still worshipful.
  • Team Developer: Sees potential in people and patiently helps them grow. Builds depth on the team so ministry doesn’t depend on one person doing everything.
  • Self-Directed Leader: Takes ownership, solves problems, and moves the ministry forward without needing to be micromanaged. Welcomes input but doesn’t stall waiting for permission.
  • Relational Collaborator: Works well with pastors, staff, and committees. Communicates clearly, listens well, and contributes to a healthy, unified staff culture.

About This Organization

Orland Park Christian Reformed Church exists to proclaim and live out the gospel of Jesus Christ in every part of life. The church believes that because Christ has died and risen, worship is not merely an event but the way God’s people respond to His greatness in all of life — in praise, obedience, service, and community. 

This congregation cherishes biblical worship. They gather weekly to worship through song and Scripture, challenge one another with God’s Word, and then scatter throughout the community to serve and love those around them. Through Sunday services, Bible studies, community outreach, and global partnerships, Orland Park CRC seeks to follow Jesus with joy, conviction, and a heart for all ages.
