Either is correct. In the United States, "Pastor" is more common. In heavily Lutheran countries, "Father" is the norm. It is more a distinction of local culture and ettiquite than one of doctrine. Both titles basically refer to the role of the parish clergy as spiritual caretaker. Pastor literally means "shepherd."
