Job description

The Las Vegas Rescue Mission is looking for two Mission Chaplains/Pastors to join our team.  LVRM is a private, faith-based organization that serves our community by offering a safe place for men and women to break the cycle of homelessness and addiction. This position serves as a visible spiritual presence, offering compassionate care, biblical teaching, crisis support, and encouragement to individuals experiencing homelessness, addiction, poverty, and life transitions.

This is not a traditional church pastor position. There is not a congregation as the Chaplain/ Pastor will work with residents in our Lighthouse Recovery Program, Shelter of Hope guests, staff, volunteers, and others connected to the life and ministry of the Mission.

We’re looking for someone who is biblically grounded, compassionate, emotionally steady, recovery-aware, and able to shepherd people in difficult and complex life situations. This person must be able to offer pastoral care without enabling, teach Scripture clearly, work well with a team, and faithfully represent the Christian identity and values of the Las Vegas Rescue Mission.

The Chaplain/Pastor will be working with vulnerable populations such as those experiencing homelessness, addiction, trauma victims, those living with communicable diseases, and mental health. We also support populations such as Veterans, Indigenous, LGBTQIA+, and immigrants.

  • Build relationships with guests through regular presence within shelter programs and residential communities.
  • Provide pastoral care, prayer, biblical encouragement, and spiritual support to residents, guests, staff, and volunteers.

  • Provide crisis intervention, grief support, and pastoral care during difficult situations
  • Connect residents and guests to church services.
  • Works with the Development, Shelter, or Recovery department to develop programming, assist with website development, events, or donor/ volunteer relationships.


Qualifications

  • Demonstrated Christian faith and agreement with the Las Vegas Rescue Mission’s Statement of Faith and values.
  • Pastoral, ministry, chaplaincy, discipleship, or church leadership experience.
  • Ability to teach Scripture clearly and apply it to real-life recovery and life-rebuilding situations.
  • Strong pastoral care, listening, communication, and interpersonal skills. Servant hearted leadership with a desire to love people where they are without judgement or condemnation.
  • Ability to minister wisely to people regardless of their backgrounds and support their individual relationship with faith.
  • High level of spiritual maturity, humility, integrity, emotional steadiness, and professional boundaries. Ability to work collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team and communicate at a high level.
  • Active involvement in a local Christian church and good standing with church leadership.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Ministry, Theology, Biblical Studies, Counseling, Human Services, or a related field preferred.
  • Ordination, commissioning, seminary training, rescue mission experience, recovery ministry experience, or Clinical Pastoral Education preferred but not required.
  • Data entry experience
  • Experience using Windows, Microsoft Word and Excel.
  • Crisis intervention/de-escalation, trauma, or grief trained
  • Networking skills
