Job Description:
Faith Covenant is a mid-sized church (100–150 weekly attendance) with a heart for Christ, community, and the next generation. We’re seeking a part-time Youth Director to build, lead, and grow a Youth ministry program for junior and senior high students.
This role isn’t just about maintaining existing programs — it’s about building a ministry that nurtures faith and engages students.

Candidates should have experience in attracting youth from the local community, as evidenced by increasing the numbers participating in this ministry. As the ministry grows, additional hours may be added to the director role.
This position is part-time. Flexible hours, competitive compensation based on experience, and other benefits are negotiable.
