Overview

Zion Lutheran Church in Clear Lake, Iowa is eager to add a Worship Director/Pastor to our team.  We are a kingdom-minded church with the desire to incorporate mission and community into everything we do.  We desire our members and visitors to know they BELONG to a community, BELIEVE in and confess Jesus as Lord and Savior, and BECOME disciples who make Jesus famous.

The Big Idea

Within the last year Zion experienced a new season of ministry alignment and momentum. Healthy leadership, a team cooperating and collaborating together, a genuine love for people and the community, and a focus on Jesus are some of the upgrades the church has experienced this last year.  As a congregation, we have grown in attendance, involvement and giving.  With this new season, we are looking to bring in a new Worship Director/Pastor to lead our congregation, volunteers, and staff toward an authentic worship encounter.

The Church

AFFILIATION: Lutheran (LCMC)

ATTENDANCE: 500-600 weekly average

ABOUT: Zion is not your typical Lutheran Church!  We have touchpoints in both traditional and modern settings.  We offer 3 services on Sunday mornings: an 9am Traditional Service in our Sanctuary complete with liturgy, hymns, and the organ; and two identical modern services at 9am and 10:30am at the Dock, a recently renovated building with a full band, sound, lighting, worship software, video, and media. Unlike most churches, we take our modern services outdoors every Sunday in the summers.  This is our largest outreach event as we are in the middle of City Park, located in the heart of downtown.  As the largest and one of the oldest churches (we celebrated 150 years in June!) in the community, Zion is well-known, has great influence in Clear Lake, and opportunities to reach outside the walls of our church building.
