Meet Calvary Community Church:
We are a God-centered, Christ-preaching church serving Jesus in Jefferson County, WA.
The primary reason we meet together at Calvary Community Church is to focus our attention on God through worship. Our hope is to make disciples for Jesus Christ by boldly teaching God's truths from the Bible, His written Word. We love to worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We live to worship him. We exist to worship him. It is our joy to worship Him.
About the Director of Student Ministry:
The primary purpose of this position is to equip students for life change through outreach and discipleship, teach scripture, promote worship, and encourage community within the body of Christ at Calvary Community Church. This will be accomplished through the development and strengthening of leadership teams in Middle and High School. Our goal is to raise up disciples who stand firm in Christ and will effectively be able to disciple others. We are seeking an individual who will be able to work with existing volunteer leadership to accomplish this goal.
Our Middle School program focuses on discipleship and outreach. Weekly youth group night consists of group games, music worship, and Bible study. Additional discipleship for core students.
We would like our High School program to be more in-depth and spiritually mature than Middle School and focus predominantly on discipleship. This is accomplished through weekly youth group nights consisting of small groups with occasional larger group activities and events.
