Welcome Ministerial Services

Welcome to Ministerial Services web pages.  We are here to serve you.  We hope that you find the information on our pages helpful.  Please let us know if there is anything that we can do for you.

Church and Minister Relations

This includes providing opportunities to help resolve issues in the local church.  Some of these opportunities include training for individuals who serve on pastor search committees, transitional pastors' training, helping the local church to discover if it needs a transitional pastor, or providing resources to support search committees and/or transitional pastor processes.

Bi-Vocational / Small Churches and Pastors

This includes providing consultations in most areas of church life as well as to encourage and equip ministers and laity of the bi-vocational and small church.  By achieving these goals, the bi-vocational pastor and small church are better able to fulfill the missions and ministries that God has assigned them in their particular location.

 

 

Leadership Training

This includes Next Level Leadership training which was developed by the North American Mission Board to equip and encourage His leaders to practice biblically-based leadership and ministry strengthening principles.  Part of this training incorporates Building Powerful Ministry Teams which was designed to assist church leaders in discovering, developing, and producing high performing ministry teams. This workshop is very effective for team leaders, existing teams, or newly formed teams.  Leadership training is also provided for deacons and other types of laity leadership.

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works."


2 Timothy 3:16-17

Pastorless Church List

The Ministerial Services Office of the Missouri Baptist Convention does not maintain a listing of pastorless churches at this time. The decision was made some time ago not to maintain such list due to the resources needed to keep such a pastorless church list current.

One may contact  the Associational Office of the associations you are interested in for their list of pastorless churches.
