Company DescriptionMadison Park Church is a passionate and growing church with a long history (over 100 years) of taking bold steps to reach those far from God in the Central Indiana region. Under the clear and compelling vision of the new Lead Pastor, Heather Semple, there is a fresh wind of faith and a fire for the future of the church.
Located just outside of the Indianapolis metro area, MP is strategically located on 200 acres along a primary stretch of interstate. There is endless possibility as the Indianapolis metro area continues to develop toward the church. Each of the counties that MP serves is unique and provides a large spectrum of opportunity for impact. In Anderson, the church continues to meet needs of a community still recovering from the loss of the automotive industry. While in Pendleton, large numbers of new housing developments are being built. In Hamilton County, both housing and industry are moving north toward the church’s central location. The town of Fishers, just 20 minutes from MP, was voted by Forbes magazine as the number one place to live in America.
Strong, strategic, passionate, and focused leadership defines this church. We are about Kingdom impact. God is clearly moving in this church and as it expands, the team is also expanding. Any new staff member will need to be comfortable with change, be flexible, willing to think outside the box, and operate as a strong team player. God’s hand is on Madison Park and its best days are ahead
HELPFUL TIPS:
1. If you dislike breathtaking sunsets and fields of green, this is probably not the place for you.
2. You do not need to love basketball, but you do need to know that the Lead Pastor is a Kansas Jayhawks fan. If this is unacceptable to you, this is probably not the place for you.
3. The staff is a close staff. We value a sense of humor above even some of the godliest characteristics. If you have never been told, “you have a good sense of humor, it’s best to bow out now.Company DescriptionMadison Park Church is a passionate and growing church with a long history (over 100 years) of taking bold steps to reach those far from God in the Central Indiana region.
