The Belfast Church of the Nazarene is seeking a Pastor for our Church in Belfast, Maine. The candidate for the position will need to be bi-vocational or retired. We seek a SPIRIT-filled Christian who has a heart for the lost and a love for GOD’s people. We have a very active Youth Program here in Belfast. We look forward to sharing work, praise and fellowship with you as you lead our Church. Below is the pay that we can currently afford but, with your leadership and our Church’s growth, we expect that to increase.
Weekly Pay – $225 dollars
Added Pay – 50% of all money taken in over $1,000 avg. per week based on
each month ($4,000 based avg. per month)
Example – Monthly Offering = $6,000 dollars
$2,000 dollars over the base x 50% = $1,000 dollars for the month
(This excludes one-time large gifts over $500 dollars)
Pastoral Monthly Love Offering: Taken on the third Sunday of each month.
Example: If the Pastor were to see an average monthly offering of $5,000 dollars, the following would be the result:
$225 dollars weekly pay for one month = $900 dollars
50% of $1,000 dollars = $500 dollars
Pastoral Monthly Love Offering = $300 dollars
Total compensation for the month = $1,700 dollars
Times12 months would be a yearly pay of $20,400 dollars
We can answer any questions regarding the Pay Program and other benefits during the interview process. We believe you will find our Church a blessing as we join together to serve our LORD.
As we currently only have an Interim Director, please contact our District Superintendent, Dr. Paul MacPherson with your inquiries/resume at mainenazds@gmail.com
