St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Albany, Oregon, is seeking a half-time Vicar who embodies the love of Jesus Christ and is dedicated to helping us deepen our spiritual life and broaden our impact on the community. As a mission church, we are committed to welcoming the largely unchurched population of our region into our faith family and sharing the message and beliefs of The Episcopal Church.
The ideal candidate will lead us in worship centered on the Eucharist, delivering sermons that are engaging, relatable, and grounded in the Gospel. We seek a Vicar who will enrich our worship experience by incorporating music and supporting lay leadership, inspiring our congregation to carry out God’s work in the wider community. With a focus on growing our church, we hope for a Vicar who can connect with families and youth, offer educational opportunities, and nurture our church leaders.
Additionally, the Vicar will provide pastoral care, visiting the homebound and offering support during significant life changes. A strong commitment to outreach is essential, as we seek to communicate our mission and ministries more effectively to our neighbors.
We invite you to learn more about us in our parish profile. If you feel that God may be calling you to join us in ministry, please send a cover letter expressing your interest along with your current resume and Office for Transition Ministry (OTM) Profile to the Rev. Canon Christopher Craun, Canon to the Ordinary at [email protected].
