Senior Pastor

Queens Herald Church, C&MA is seeking a Senior Pastor to lead its staff and lay leaders who will minister to over 500 Chinese and English-speaking congregants of diversified age groups, personalities and giftings in Queens, NY. We are seeking a leader who is flexible and able to celebrate those differences while leading them to lead the rest of the church towards life-change and Gospel impact. We are looking for a leader who senses the hand of God upon QHC, recognizes the resources that He has blessed us with, and is willing to journey with its leaders and congregation to actualize our potential for Gospel influence and impact in our homes, our communities, and even onto the ends of the earth. The Senior Pastor is charged to lead and shepherd the entire church with support from the lead pastors and elders of the Chinese and English congregations. Cantonese speaking preferred.

The candidate must currently be an ordained pastor with at least 10 years of pastoral experience, preferably with experience as a senior pastor. He must have sound theological knowledge and training as well as experience leading multiple staff. The candidate will abide by and uphold the Christian & Missionary Alliance’s (C&MA) Statement of Faith (www.cmalliance.org/about/beliefs/doctrine).

• Vision: QHC is a family where God’s love works.
• Mission: Empowering all peoples on their faith journey.
• QHC’s Critical Gospel Impact is to be a Chinese American church called to be a strategically positioned presence and resource of God’s healing and restorative love to multi-generational Chinese American immigrant families and people of all stages of life and faith. Our church is passionate about evangelism - sharing the gospel with our people groups and also partnering with our community to hold functions and activities. We believe that God has also blessed us with resources that are rather unique to the Asian American community. We have a dynamic youth group and children’s ministry. We recognize the fact that the health of our families needs a champion. We have decided to be that champion. We will know that we are in alignment with our critical gospel impact when we hear testimonies of dynamic encounters with God and sustained intimate relationships with Him as well as stories of life-change among individuals, families, the church, and other circles of influence.
