Crosspoint Church – Worship Pastor (Full-Time)

Church Overview

Crosspoint Church – Waverly, Iowa

We are a vibrant and growing church located in a welcoming college-town community in Waverly, Iowa. We value authentic relationships, biblical teaching, and Spirit-led ministry, and we are committed to developing leaders who will serve both our local church and future ministry locations.

Our Mission:
Our mission is to inspire and equip people to GIVE their whole lives to Jesus, GROW in their relationship with Him and others, and GO tell the world the Good News.

Our community offers the relational depth of small-town life while being a short drive to larger urban settings, providing access to arts, culture, education, and recreation. It is an ideal environment for young leaders to grow personally, spiritually, and professionally.

God is at work among us, and we are prayerfully seeking a full-time Worship Pastor who is a Spirit-led worshipper and a passionate developer of people.
