Job Description

Student Ministries Pastor (Full Time)

CBC Cleveland, Calvary Baptist Church Cleveland, Texas

Position Overview

The Student Ministries Pastor is responsible for leading and discipling students from 7th through 12th grade while helping carry out the vision of CBC Cleveland. This role exists to help students and parents become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ as Lord through biblical teaching, intentional discipleship, gospel-centered community, and faithful partnership with families. The Student Ministries Pastor will build upon an already healthy and growing ministry with strong volunteer leadership, a history of 50+ students, and a part time Youth Ministry Coordinator who provides administrative and planning support to the ministry. At CBC Cleveland, our vision for discipleship is simple: Love God – We gather consistently for worship, prayer, and biblical teaching because God first loved us. Hebrews 10:24–25 reminds believers not to neglect meeting together as the body of Christ. Love Each Other – We grow through biblical community where we know others and are known by others through prayer, Scripture, encouragement, and accountability. Love the Lost – We live missionally through everyday Christian love and good deeds as neighbors, classmates, coworkers, and the hands and feet of Jesus through outreach and missions. We believe students who are loving God, loving each other, and loving the lost are growing as disciples of Jesus Christ.
