A successful candidate will be able to grow and develop the Youth Ministry by recruiting, inspiring, and equipping a team of volunteers to teach, guide, and care for the youth of COTC. The successful candidate will also be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading of the youth in Biblical teaching, discipleship, and worship for the youth in their care. Areas of focus include group and community building, discipleship, worship, mission, family support, outreach, and creating avenues that ensure opportunities for connection to the life of the body of Christ. Responsibilities Be an engaging spiritual leader and discipleship role model with a demonstrable personal relationship with Jesus.

Develop, implement, and manage (along with a team of volunteers) comprehensive youth ministry programs/activities targeting all the focus areas. Provide counseling and spiritual direction that aligns with church ministry doctrine, strategy, policies, and plans. Serve as an advocate for youth by educating and enlightening the congregation about the hopes, concerns, and needs of the youth in the church and the COTC community at large. Develop and implement ministry activities to support the parents/guardians of students. Collaborate with local schools and youth ministry activities outside of COTC to jointly accomplish ministry goals. Research resources and make recommendations for developing and improving the youth ministry programming. Recruit, train, manage, and mentor adequate volunteer/staff support to work in all aspects of youth ministry. Maintain a flexible schedule that allows for acceptable and appropriate contact with youth outside of programmed activities (e.g., meeting students on school campus, attendance at extracurricular activities, sharing meals, times of crisis, etc.). Maintain accurate records of youth participation and follow up with students whose youth attendance has dropped. Develop and oversee youth ministry policies and procedures ensuring the safety of students, staff, and volunteers. Manage, compile, and execute a youth ministry program budget for reporting purposes. Communicate with church leadership, staff, parents, and congregation in a timely manner utilizing available resources (email, social media, call/text, bulletin, newsletter, posters, etc.). Collaborate with church leaders and staff members in a cohesive and open team environment. Participate in continuing education events and training opportunities pertinent to youth ministry as time permits. Regular and reliable attendance is required in the performance of the job.
