Children's Ministries Director

A typical week often blends program planning, family-facing presence, and volunteer leadership — preparing for Sunday programs and midweek classes, training and supporting volunteers, and being available to families navigating the realities of raising children.

The harder part is often the breadth of family situations and developmental needs the program serves under one roof. You'll typically build a culture of safety and welcome across volunteers who range from highly trained to newly recruited, while staying spiritually grounded in the work itself.

People who tend to thrive here are pastorally rooted, energetic, and patient with the long arc of children's spiritual formation. The trade-off is the schedule — children's ministry happens evenings and weekends — and the trust that comes with kids in your care. If you find satisfaction in stewarding a program that shapes children during their most formative spiritual years, this role can carry rare significance.
