Family Ministries Director

Most days tend to involve a blend of program planning, family-facing presence, and pastoral conversations — meetings with small group leaders, planning seasonal programming, and being available to parents and couples navigating the realities of family life. You'll often spend part of the time on the operational fabric of registration, communications, and event logistics.

The hardest part is often the breadth of family situations the program serves — newlyweds, young parents, blended families, empty nesters, those navigating loss or divorce — under a single ministry that has to feel meaningful to all of them. You'll typically lead largely through volunteers while staying spiritually and pastorally present.

People who tend to thrive here are pastorally grounded, organized, and skilled at the slow work of building community. The trade-off is the schedule — family ministry happens evenings and weekends — and the personal disclosure that comes with the work. If you find satisfaction in walking with families through the real seasons of life, this role can carry quiet, lasting meaning.
