‘Live as a Global Church’

April 10, 2014

“We need to learn to live as a global church in a local context and never to imagine that we’re just a local church.”

Positions Offered

The Church of the Nativity is a thirteen-year-old parish in north Scottsdale – a fast-growing, predominantly residential area in one of the economically- and educationally-strongest areas of the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Nativity is a program-sized strong, stable, vibrant and debt-free parish. We are in a beautiful contemporary office campus, with the eleventh-largest parish budget in the Diocese of Arizona. We have a strong commitment to mission outreach. We welcome all people into our community of worship and practice, and we pride ourselves on our inclusivity and welcoming spirit. We seek a rector who shares our commitment to inclusivity, social justice, outreach, stewardship and discipleship, the ability to minister to a wide range of ages, needs, and preferences, and who will serve as a model of our Mission of “Transforming Lives Through the Love of Jesus Christ.”Contact: The Rev.
