Pastor Onboarding Checklist

This onboarding checklist outlines the process for integrating a new pastor into a church community. It covers pre-boarding tasks such as sending a welcome email, providing necessary documentation, and setting up accounts. The first day includes a tour, meetings with staff, and an overview of the church's mission and software. The first week involves meeting ministry leaders, attending meetings, and familiarizing themselves with church procedures. Over the first three months, the new pastor will develop a pastoral care plan, lead groups, participate in outreach, and review church programs. They will also deliver a sermon, attend leadership meetings, and complete a self-assessment.
