to assist with your needs. He will be available to meet with students
between 2-4 on Thursdays in the Student Computer Cluster, L109. Please

Church Profile
and Job Description
In the center of East Barnard village there is a small church, that has served the surrounding area for over 150 years. It is historically a non-denominational church community. In the beginning, different groups, Methodist, Baptists, Universalists, would use the church on a specified week each month, sharing in the upkeep of the building. Today, we come together to worship during the months of June, July, August and again at Christmas Eve. We are looking for a minister, who may be active, retired or a seminary student, who would be responsible for worship services each week. As our children are an important part of our community, we would expect each service to include a children’s sermon. Other duties would include some sort of adult education or regular fellowship. In the past this has been in the form of a book discussion or theme-based potluck suppers. Two or three meetings over the course of the summer would be sufficient. Visiting of church members who are sick, elderly or in need of support would be expected as well. The community could foresee the candidate having time for study or research, or possibly having a part-time job in the area.
Compensation for the three months is $2,500. Help with obtaining housing would be available, and we would hope that the minister or intern would want to live in or close to our community.

people about the
connections between faith and environmental stewardship and the benefits of
renewable energy. There is plenty of room for a motivated person to

leaders, greater presence at local events,
etc.). Anticipated start in September or possibly earlier. Interested?

Director of Children’s
Ministries Position Available in Greenwich
I graduated from the
Div School last year and I am leaving my current position to move to the

classes, preach, lead liturgy, head a committee, participate in staff meetings

into the life of the
church. This is a great opportunity to explore church ministry for the
