The Northern Plains District (NPD) of the Evangelical Free Church of America (EFCA) is seeking its next District Superintendent (DS). This is a rare opportunity for an energized, inspirational leader to build on a healthy foundation, and to work with a region of pastors and leaders to make a transformational Kingdom impact.
The NPD consists of 35 churches in North Dakota, eastern Montana, northwestern Minnesota and northern South Dakota. Two-thirds of the NPD churches are located in the eastern one-third of the district near to the larger population centers, and one-third of the churches are located in the western two-thirds of the district. The NPD is governed by a seven-member district board, and the DS will report to this group. It is important for the incoming DS to understand and appreciate the dichotomy that exists within the district between the needs of smaller, rural churches and churches located in larger communities with access to more resources. Creating a sense of community, connection, and value for all congregations within the district will be an important priority for the incoming DS.
The NPD is ripe with opportunity to innovate and expand on many good things that are already happening. With the right person in place, the future is bright with possibilities. The ideal candidate will be a relational servant-leader who steps to the forefront to cast a refreshed vision for disciple-making, ministry multiplication, and the untapped Kingdom potential that exists in the NPD. The right person will be an outgoing leader who expresses a wise, mature leadership presence that inspires confidence from others.
