First Baptist Church has served the Lord in Mount Dora for over 100 years. Beginning in 1922 with just 21 charter members, today, the church is blessed to have over 2,000 members and serve an even larger community.
The Worship Pastor will lead and develop the church’s worship ministry, with special emphasis on choir direction as an integral part of the church’s worship voice. The ideal candidate will bring strong choir leadership experience, demonstrating the ability to conduct and coach a sizable choir while maintaining knowledge of modern repertoire. They must be adept at leading congregational worship and comfortable with the church’s blended style, incorporating both contemporary elements and hymns arranged in a modern style.
The role requires a positive team player who builds strong relationships with staff and demonstrates pastoral care in connecting with congregation members. The successful candidate should have skills in worship planning and programming, with the ability to shape services that engage the full congregation.
