A new and exciting season of ministry is taking shape at Church of the Atonement. Our church has been blessed with a new Senior Pastor and Associate Pastor in the last three years and our Next Generation ministry (children and youth) is growing. We now have nearly 40 students in our youth ministry, with 12 additional entering the program in Fall 2023. Praise God! While this growth is amazing, it presents us with a great problem. As the size of the ministry increases, the complexity of the ministry increases. A youth group of 50 requires many more chaperones, leaders, and ministry strategies to effectively disciple our youth. We are at a juncture where we must work hard to keep the ministry feeling small and relational. The result of this discernment is a new direction, a new position, and a new structure for our ministries. We are excited to see how God continues to lead us in finding the person who will help lead our church to faithfully minister to youth and families. As we pray for God’s provision, we seek a director whose love for Jesus and for others is evident in their speech and relations and who exemplifies:
- A life that is Christ-centered and rooted in Scripture;
- Reformed theology and graciousness in presenting it;
- Commitment to personal development and self-care;
- Experience in communicating the Gospel and defending the Faith in ways that speak to our contemporary culture;
- Ability to lead and train others to lead;
- Faithfulness to teach, evangelize, and shepherd.
