Church and Community Overview
River Valley Community Church (RVCC) was planted 15 years ago with a heart for the
City of Aurora. We are a diverse body both economically and ethnically. We are an
independent, evangelical church rooted in the Word of God that seeks excellence in all
that we do as a reflection of the excellence of God.
RVCC was built on the basis of community. Our primary desire is to minister to the City

worship God, connect in communities that cultivate Christ-like character, and equip
people to use their gifts to change the world for Christ.
We offer a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere with thought-provoking exegetical teaching.

coffee, conversation, music, prayer and Biblical teaching all in a casual café setting. Live
worship music, intentional Bible teaching for children six months to 5th grade, and
friendly people who hang out and chat are just some of the aspects we provide at RVCC.

We are looking for a servant leader who is highly relational, with a clear vision for local,
regional and global ministry. He will need to have strong communication skills (both in
the pulpit and interpersonally), a calling for developing new leaders, a passion for

Ocqueoc Baptist Church of Millersburg, Michigan is seeking the Lord’s leading in finding a pastor for their church and is waiting on the Lord’s timing. The Church is independent and located in a rural community. It is the desire of the church to have a man who is truly a pastor by scripture definition and not only a teacher. The opening is for a person who is committed to reflect the Lord Jesus Christ in their action and not in word only. A small town ministry is a challenge and would require a soldier of the cross. If the Lord is directing you to this type of ministry you may make contact with the chairman of the Pastor Search Committee in the following manner. Ocqueoc Baptist Church Luke Ellenberger P.O.
