Durham Memorial Baptist Church is a legacy church in the rapidly changing area of East Durham. Through the hiring of new younger ministry staff and changing methodologies of ministry, the church is working to reach the population of our community (younger and more ethnically diverse). There is still much work to be done, and a candidate for the position would be a necessary change agent to help lead and cast vision for new directions.
