We are excited to announce that Community Covenant Church is launching a search for a Youth Pastor, or pastoral couple, to lead, engage, and develop the next generation of students and young people in our community. As a church, we believe that investing in the next generation is crucial for fulfilling our mission to love God, love people, and make disciples who make disciples. The Youth Pastor will play a vital role in connecting middle school and high school students to Jesus, equipping parents to disciple their teens, and developing future leaders. If you or someone you know is passionate about reaching the next generation and has the qualifications outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply.
Here's the scoop on the position!
Community Covenant Church (Omaha, Nebraska) is seeking a full-time Youth Pastor to lead middle school and high school students in becoming disciples of Jesus who love God, love people, and make disciples. CCC is an intergenerational church that values collaboration between ministry areas and prioritizes teamwork among its staff. This position focuses on shepherding students, equipping families, and developing leaders to impact the next generation.
As the Youth Pastor, you will serve in three critical roles: pastor, engager, and developer.
As a pastor, you will build strong relationships with students, families, and volunteers, helping them grow in their relationships with Jesus and others. You will also lead students through key transitions (e.g. middle school to high school) and communicate God’s Word effectively for a lifetime of discipleship.
As an engager, you will intentionally engage with students far from God, model personal evangelism, and foster a welcoming environment for students to explore and journey with Christ.
As a developer, you help equip parents to be the primary disciple-makers of their students, and train volunteers to lead effectively; and you will develop and empower future leaders to expand ministry impact.
To be considered for this position, you should have a bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent experience, a clear calling to student ministry and a commitment to personal spiritual growth, strong communication skills, and a proven ability to build and maintain relationships with students and families.
If you are passionate about reaching middle school and high school students with the love of Jesus and have a desire to equip them to lead others for a lifetime of discipleship, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity!
Additional Requirements:
- Alignment with the beliefs and mission of the Evangelical Covenant Church.
