Children and Family Ministries Assistant

Job Opening: Children and Family Ministries Assistant

This is an ideal job for retired school teachers, parents of school age kids, those looking for job experience or someone seeking extra income.

The Children and Family Ministries Assistant(ADCFM) will serve as an assistant leader for the children’s and family ministries program at St. Paul’s Church – participating in the overall staff team emphasis of discipleship and disciple-making. The successful candidate will exhibit a passion for the next generation. St. Paul’s has a history of dynamic focus on kids. This person is highly relational with the ability to also think administratively. They will design a ministry model that advances the vision of St. Paul’s – especially our desire to “create such a compelling environment that children and youth can’t wait to bring friends.” This part-time position will have the primary responsibility for overseeing the pre-elementary ministries of children birth through age 5. They will lead and grow Christ-centered, engaging, and relevant ministry for and with kids and their parents, as well as assist the Director of Children’s & Family Ministries in implementing a program that fosters community within the overall Church family. They should not be satisfied with only reaching the kids of those who already attend—but should creatively cast vision and execute programming with a goal toward reaching new families. The successful candidate will be a team player that can work alongside the rest of the church staff, being a champion for the mission and vision of St. Paul’s Church.
