SENIOR PASTOR—GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH, RIVER FOREST, ILL.—A 1,200-member indepen- dent Lutheran church, with preschool through grade 8 school, is conducting a pastoral search because of the retirement of its senior pastor. We seek a senior pastor who is deeply grounded in the Scriptures and who believes they are faithfully explicated by the Lutheran Confessions. Candidates should be skilled in preaching, teaching, leading worship and exer- cising pastoral care and have experience and abil- ity in leading a multiple-member staff. At the center of the church’s life is liturgical worship. We have a strong commitment to excellence in music and to Christian education for all ages. We seek a pastor- theologian-administrator who can guide growth in ministry to members and the community. Located in Chicago suburb. See
www.graceriverforest. org for application and congregational profile.
