  • St. Andrew's, Mountain Home

    Full-Time Rector or Part-Time Rector
    Accepting nominees.

    St. Andrew's is a welcoming and inclusive small town congregation located between Bull Shoals Lake and Lake Norfork, both well-known for great recreational and fishing opportunities in the beautiful Ozark Mountains. Our worship is intentional, reverent, creative and joyful. We celebrate God’s presence in our lives and in the broader community. We have opened our church to the community in a variety of ways including providing meeting space for local clubs and hosting fundraisers for local nonprofits.

    The Arts at St. Andrew’s series hosts concerts and educational lectures yearly. Our local outreach includes our weekly Food Pantry which coordinates with the North Central Arkansas Food Bank. We provide food and other household necessities for hundreds of families in our area.

    EfM has been a core part of our commitment to education and mission for years.

    Our Daughters of the King Chapter was one of the first in Arkansas. The daughters host quiet days and pray daily for every member of our congregation.

    Our children’s Sunday program is the Catechesis of the Good Shephard. We also host one of the first Little Free Libraries in our county. The church’s location adjacent to two apartment complexes and an elementary school make it a popular visiting spot for children of all ages.

    This last year we have been very involved in the national Pivot program created by the Episcopal Church Foundation. We have begun shifting towards mission as we implement Pivot and are looking forward to a year of new opportunities working with our Focus Groups. Last year we hosted a social justice forum event which was well received by our community. A second one is scheduled and we expect it to be a success also.

    We are seeking a full or part time rector who is outgoing and compassionate, an effective administrator, and a creative preacher and teacher. We have an aging congregation and we want a priest who will help us to use our gifts to grow toward young families. Serving in partnership with our new rector, we hope to develop lay leadership and connect actively with religious seekers in our area. We will negotiate on salary.

    Mountain Home is a great community with outstanding public schools. Arkansas State University, Mountain Home Campus offers two year associate degrees, a variety of technical certificates and specialized vocational training. Our regional hospital serves a large area with over 250 beds and a staff of over 200 doctors.

    You can find all of this in a warm, small town atmosphere.
