Director of Camp and Youth Ministries

Kasota East Camp/Red Deer Presbytery

 

Do you have a desire to minister to youth of all ages?

Was your faith nurtured at summer camp?

 

This newly formed position is an opportunity to combine both these passions!

 

This position will be a full-time position that will seek to balance and complement the visions of youth ministry in Red Deer Presbytery and that of Kasota East Camp.

 

The mission of the camp is “to model a Christian lifestyle in an outdoor setting within a community that promotes outreach, spiritual awareness, personal growth and harmonious living.” 

 

The core focus of the youth ministry component is to continue the work of strengthening youth and young adult ministries by supporting, equipping, and encouraging congregational youth and young adults, as well as those who provide leadership to youth and young adults.

 

The Director of Camp and Youth Ministries will have:

1.     Training and experience with youth ministry within a United Church context and ethos.  DLM or members of the order of ministry may be eligible, depending on experience and training.  The eligible candidate may also be in the midst of an educational program.

2.     An ability to live out his/her theology and spirituality and to inspire children and youth.

3.     Commitment to the vision for a sustainable youth presence and contribution across presbytery.
