We are looking for a full-time, enthusiastic pastor with good organizational skills who must have a deep understanding and passion for our church and community. We need good worship leadership in voice and singing. Parsonage housing is available for this position. There are dozens of miles of trout streams within 30 minutes of Decorah: Winneshiek County Trout Fishing Guide.
