Description of Organization

Bethel Korean Presbyterian Church in Ellicott City, Maryland seeks a half-time associate youth pastor to work directly in discipling and caring for our female students. The successful candidate would team with our current Youth Pastors to journey alongside our youth in helping them to see more of Jesus in their lives as they commit to becoming mature disciples of Jesus Christ into adulthood.

Our vibrant and flourishing youth ministry, Bethel Youth Group (BYG), is composed of 150+ middle and high school students from families in both our Korean-speaking (KM) and English-speaking (EM) congregations. BYG strives to be a ministry that is relational and emphasizes “people-keeping” over program-maintenance. We seek to invite the Holy Spirit’s work into our ministry by making small groups the heartbeat and engine of Christian discipleship. Our desire is to build meaningful partnerships so that our students realize and witness that God is also at work outside the walls of the church including in the lives of their homes, schools, neighborhoods, and beyond.
