We are seeking and believing for a spirit-filled, passionate worshipper of Jesus who is called, gifted and experienced in leading a large congregation. We believe that this is done through your sincere, personal, ongoing relationship with the Holy
Spirit allowing you to be vulnerable to model an offering of authentic and devoted worship to Him without reservation. It is vital that you are able to discern and flow as the spirit leads you, in alignment with the Word of God and in cooperation with the
vision and leadership. Charity is a genuinely worshipful congregation who runs after Jesus in their worship. They are a singing congregation who will out sing you much of the time! If you are looking for one of the most joyful, genuine and spirit led places
to lead worship - this is your place! You will be blessed beyond measure and given an atmosphere of structure but one that allows the Holy Spirit to move and flow as He desires. We purpose for our children, youth and adults to experience a Freedom of worship
because we know what happens in that atmosphere. He inhabits the praises of His people.
We are a church of longevity and integrity led by our pastor and protected by our elders. We have only had 3 lead pastors in our 70+ years and our Worship Pastor is transitioning after decades of leading worship @ Charity. We are praying that the
Lord lead you as you consider Charity may be the place that you are called to and that we seek His will together as we listen and obey.
Charity is a spirit-filled, multi-generational, non-denominational church on the outskirts of Indianapolis. We are a place where Love abounds and fresh starts begin. Visit us at becharity.com
