Post a Ministry Position
MinistryPlace is the only job board built exclusively for small and rural churches. Posting your open position is completely free — no subscription, no credit card, no catch.
How It Works
Fill out the form below
Enter your church name, location, position details, and contact information. The more detail you provide, the better candidates you will attract.
Your listing goes live
Your position will appear on the MinistryPlace jobs board within minutes. Candidates can search by position type, location, and keywords.
Candidates contact you directly
Interested candidates will contact you directly at the email address you provide. MinistryPlace does not screen or filter applicants — that is your job.
Want more time or visibility?
Posting is always free. If you need a longer featured presence, you can choose an optional paid listing upgrade after reviewing the available details:
Featured Job Listing — 60 Days ($49)
Premium Job Listing — 90 Days ($99)
These are visibility services, not downloadable resources. Choose one only if the additional listing exposure fits your church’s hiring need.

Tips for a Great Listing
Be Honest About Your Church
Describe your church accurately — size, style, community, strengths, and challenges. Honest listings attract candidates who are genuinely suited for your context.
Include Compensation Range
Listings with compensation information receive significantly more qualified applications. You do not have to give an exact number — a range is enough.
Describe the Community
Candidates are choosing a place to live, not just a job. Tell them about the town, the region, the cost of living, and what makes your community worth moving to.
Looking for Candidates?
Browse pastoral candidates who have posted their profiles on MinistryPlace — pastors and ministry leaders who are actively seeking a call.

Optional Upgrade
Get More Qualified Applicants with a Featured Listing
Featured listings appear at the top of search results, are highlighted with a gold border, and receive 3-5x more views than standard listings. If your church needs to fill this position quickly, a featured listing is the most effective tool available.
Featured – 60 Days
$49
Top placement for 60 days. Best for most searches.
Featured – 30 Days
$99
Premium placement for 30 days. Highest visibility.
Standard listings are always free. Featured placement is optional and can be added after submitting your listing.
