  • Preaching in the church, as scheduled by the pastor.
  • Be a liaison between the church and other community organizations, people, and resources that relate to youth ministries.
  • Select the curriculum, teach or coordinate others teaching, for all mid-week meetings.

  • Communicate with the youth and parents in a timely manner and as effectively as possible using all available resources
  • Attend all Servant Leadership Team (SLT) meetings as required.

  • Required Bachelor’s Degree in Bible or Ministry, or Seminary Degree, Ordained (or working toward Ordination).
  • The candidate (and their spouse) should exhibit a personal and growing relationship with God, a teachable spirit, a healthy family life, and be a team player.
  • The candidate should be baptized in the Holy Spirit, have a passion for God’s Word, a love for young people, a servant’s heart, and a passion for evangelism both personally and at the ministry level.
  • Must have vision and a demonstrated ability to plan, develop, coordinate, manage and implement a youth ministry within the parameters of the church.
