Youth Group Leader at St Barnabas Anglican Church

3-4 hours per week, $18 per hour, September 2021 through June 2022.

The youth group leader supports the Community Life Minister in providing weekly programming for the children and youth of St Barnabas Anglican Church. Duties would mainly include organizing and running a bi-weekly Junior Youth Group for ages 10-12 (approx. grades 5-7) and a Youth Group for ages 12-16 (approx. grade 7-10).

St Barnabas is an Anglo-Catholic congregation focused on Jesus Christ, seeking to show forth God's love both inside and outside our community. We hope you are someone with that same focus and love, with a desire to share it with children and youth in a caring and patient way (that doesn't exclude or cut off the questioners and the doubters), and firmly grounded enough in your own faith to share and speak about it with ease.

Requirements:

  • experience working with this age group, preferably in a church or Christian camp setting;
  • a willingness to work with the Community Life Minister;
  • energy and initiative to plan and play age appropriate games and activities;
  • ability to check in and work with parents;
  • good communication skills with 10- to 16-year-olds and the ability to make them feel safe and supported;
  • a desire to help youth with outreach projects (e.g., soup kitchen).

Please send a cover letter, resume and references by August 16 to:
