Cristo Rey San Jose Jesuit High School
Job Description
Campus Ministry and Service Learning Coordinator
CRSJ VISION
Through a culture of joyful learning, Cristo Rey San José celebrates and develops students’ unique gifts as they encounter God’s love and become leaders who shape society with and for others.
CRSJ MISSION
Cristo Rey San José is a Jesuit, Catholic college-prep high school where students of any faith commit to a rigorous curriculum and professional work experience. Students realize their inherent potential and prepare to complete a post-secondary education that will set them on a path toward a sustainable, fulfilling future. Through the Ignatian charism of cura personalis, students facing barriers to opportunity become leaders filled with passion, purpose, confidence and conscience.
POSITION SUMMARY:
The Campus Ministry department is the driving force of faith and spirituality for the CRSJ community; our programs enliven and animate the Catholic and Jesuit identity of our school for our students, our faculty and staff, our parents and families.
The department seeks to nurture and develop the spiritual lives of our students, supporting and enriching them to live lives filled with faith, hope and love in service to others. Through retreats, monthly prayer services, Masses, morning prayer, the daily Examen, sacramental preparations, and other formational activities, we invite and encourage every student to seek God’s presence in all things and to live authentically “for the greater glory of God.” Our community reflects Jesus’ care and concern for all people regardless of color, creed, or country. We live in solidarity with the poor and with creation, we advocate for those suffering from injustices, and we take joy in being “men and women for others.” As a school, which functions in an interreligious context, we foster unity by integrating prayer experiences from different religious traditions.
The Campus Ministry programs at Cristo Rey are rooted in the Jesuit tradition, inspired by Gospel values, and influenced by our students’ lived realities. Our programs are designed to integrate faith, culture, and life - encouraging students to think critically and ethically about the world around them - so as to create the Kingdom of God here on Earth. Each component of the program reflects our profile of the “Graduate at Graduation,” as well as the three core elements of Cristo Rey Network’s spirituality: message, community, and service. The ultimate goal is the formation of students into morally grounded young adults who have developed a relationship with Jesus Christ and are striving to realize their unique gifts and vocation as they build “right relationships with God, with one another, and with creation.”
