Director Of Children And Youth Ministries

The Next Gen Director for Holy Trinity will be an integral part of the senior leadership of this parish. This person will partner with the rector (senior pastor) to help envision and implement programs that will shift our congregational focus to reaching the next generation of Children and Youth. This will require creativity, wisdom and discernment as we imagine what could be, then build the teams and create the systems that will build deep relationships with children, youth and their families.

Purpose: Our purpose is to help Children and Youth develop a personal relationship with God. This is more than just imparting knowledge; it’s helping them discover God at work in their lives, then relying on God’s love all through their days. We value growing connections more than drawing a crowd.

Role: The role for the Next Gen Director at Holy Trinity is two-fold. The first is to build a church-based, Children and Youth ministry that reaches families who are already part of the present church community. This includes our afternoon ministry to a vibrant Sudanese community that is part of our church. The second focus is on the development and implementation of ministries that reach out to our community Children and their parents. Our hope is to cultivate long term relationships with them and offer a place for them to discover God for themselves. The new Next Gen Director will be responsible for these areas of focus.

The Next Gen Director will also oversee an existing part time staff that are already on board with the vision, and connected with the people here. In addition, they will provide leadership for volunteer recruitment, program development, outreach event implementation and budget management. This person will report to the Rector.

Job Requirements: We believe the Next Gen Director will bring the following gifts and abilities:

· A love for God and for sharing God’s love with others.

· A proven ability to organize and lead children, youth and volunteers in a church, school, or community setting.

· An ability to think creatively and bring “out of the box” ministry ideas.

· Prefer, but not required, degree, certification or education in education or ministry practices.

· Ability to set priorities, initiate plans, and handle multiple tasks.

· Able to recruit and support a large number of parents and volunteers.

· Possess strong organizational and communication skills.

· Possess PC skills.

· Willingness to manage their time with the irregular schedule sometimes required by major events and/or seasonal programs.

If you are passionate about making a difference in the lives of young individuals, we encourage you to apply for the position of Next Gen Ministry Director.
