The Chapel in Marlboro is a growing rural church located in Louisville, Ohio, with a strong commitment to biblical teaching, community outreach, and multi-generational ministry. Situated on 50 acres, the church is known throughout the area for its thriving children’s and student ministries, AWANA, Upward Sports, and generous use of its facilities for community engagement.

The church values relational leadership, sound theology, volunteer mobilization, and long-term kingdom impact as they continue building for the future.

The ideal candidate will be:

• A relational and outgoing leader who can connect with young adults, families, and the surrounding community.

Working alongside Lead Pastor Tom Edwards and a healthy, collaborative staff team, this pastor will help mobilize volunteers, support ministries and outreach events, and provide leadership to growing initiatives such as the church’s food truck ministry, sports outreach, and community engagement opportunities.
