Warnbro Community Church is seeking a gifted and spiritually mature Associate Minister to lead our corporate worship and prayer life.

We are part of the association of Churches of Christ WA and are known for our warm hospitality, deep Bible teaching, intergenerational community, and heart for local and overseas mission. Our vision is to be “More than a Sunday”- a community who pursues and proclaims Jesus in all of life.

**Other Requirements**:

**About Warnbro Community Church**:
We believe the church is more than a building or a Sunday gathering - it’s a community shaped by the love of Jesus, gathering in His name and going out with the gospel. Our mission is to pursue Jesus, embrace community, and share the gospel in ways that are authentic, biblical, and relevant to life today.

We value deep relationships, team-based ministry, good theology, and practical faith lived out in the everyday. If that resonates with you, we’d love to talk.
