ENGLISH MINISTRY PASTOR (FULL-TIME POSITION)

Edmonton Korean First Presbyterian Church is a Korean-Canadian church in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, 

having been a part of the community for over 40 years. 

The church is part of the Korean American Presbyterian Church denomination and 

currently has around 300 members, with 45 youth and 20 active young adult members. 

We are seeking a full-time pastor to join us in leading our younger English-speaking members, to encourage 

and equip them, strengthening their faith, and to help establish, plan, and carry out a long-term vision 

for the English Ministry.

LOCATION & CHURCH INFORMATION

Edmonton, Alberta is the capital of the province and the northernmost city in North America 

with a metropolitan population of over a million people. The Korean-speaking population is small 

but growing, numbering over 6,000 people in the last national census.

While our church has been part of the community for over four decades, one of our largest challenges 

has been keeping our younger English-speaking congregants as they grow and start their careers and families. 

Due to continued pastoral changes, many have become discouraged with the second-generation Korean church 

in Edmonton over the years and have left as a result. There currently is no significant second-generation 

Korean-Canadian ministry in the City.

RESPONSIBILITIES

The English Ministry Pastor would be responsible for the following:

- Leading regular Sunday services for English Ministries and assisting with church-wide holiday services 

(Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas)

- Preparing and delivering Sunday sermons to English Ministry groups: biblically sound sermons 

focusing on core, foundational elements of the faith that can encourage the members’ love of, 

and excitement for, the Word.

- Mentoring and encouraging English congregation members in their faith, establishing 

and maintaining relationships with the group at large, including visitations/counselling, 

and fostering a loving church community

- Leading group meetings, activities, and events, including establishment of small groups and Bible studies.

- Develop and train lay leaders and ministry teams (including praise team members and discipleship training) 

and also work with church leadership and group members to carry out the long-term vision for the 

English Ministry (including Youth).

- Establish connections and relationships with the second-generation community at large, 

including previous members who are no longer attending church.

- Report to and work with the Senior Pastor and church leadership for general church matters, 

such as long-term planning, holiday services, and special events. 

The English Ministry Pastor is accountable to the Senior Pastor and is to keep him informed of 

any developments, issues, and concerns with English Ministries.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for a pastor who is:

- Passionate for Christ and His church, specifically in a Korean-Canadian context;

A strong leader able to shepherd the group without fear or hesitation; and

Humble and open-minded, able to connect with members spiritually and relationally; listen to them 

and be approached with struggles and concerns.

- Devoted to prayer.

- Fluent in English and preferably able to speak Korean, at least at a conversational level. 

The English Ministry is part of the Korean church, and the English Ministry Pastor must work with 

the Korean-speaking Senior Pastor and leadership on an ongoing basis.
