CHILDREN’S MINISTRY ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR
Birth–5th Graders
Part-Time | 15–18 hours/week | $24/hour
Do you love Jesus, kids, and people?
We’re looking for a relational, passionate Children’s Ministry Coordinator to help lead our birth through fifth grade ministry.
This role is about more than teaching and managing programs—it’s about shepherding people. You’ll recruit, equip, and encourage the volunteers while creating meaningful environments where children can know Jesus, feel safe and loved, and grow in their faith.
Your Mission
Build a thriving community of shepherd-leaders who love Jesus, love kids, and love serving together.
Your primary focus will be partnering with the Children’s Ministry Associate Director to create environments that reflect the heart and teachings of Jesus while caring for and empowering our volunteers so they can confidently disciple and nurture the children entrusted to them.
What You’ll Do
Cultivate Volunteers — Shepherd & Coach
Recruit, develop, and coach volunteers, helping them grow from willing helpers into confident shepherd-leaders.
Lesson Planning
Prepare and customize weekly curriculum to align with ministry goals and effectively engage children.
Partner in Leadership
Work closely with the Children’s Ministry Director to develop and carry out a fun, engaging, Jesus-centered vision for South Park Church’s Children’s Ministry—including special events, VBS, and holiday programs.
Partner with Families
Equip and encourage parents to become the primary spiritual leaders in their children’s lives and provide practical ways for faith to be lived out at home.
Could You Be Our Next Leader?
You Love Jesus & Kids: You have a growing relationship with Jesus and a genuine excitement for teaching young children.
You’re Passionate: You love developing creative, engaging, and Biblically authentic lessons and activities that help children know God and love Jesus.
You Have a Shepherd’s Heart: You naturally notice people, build relationships, listen well, and care deeply about the people you lead.
You’re a Team Builder: You know how to encourage, equip, delegate, and bring people together around a shared mission.
You Bring Experience: Three or more years of experience in ministry, education, or team leadership is preferred—but character, calling, and a passion for discipleship matter most.
You’re Growing in Your Faith: A degree in Bible, Theology, Education, or a related field is a plus, but we’re most interested in someone who is committed to following Jesus and helping others do the same.
Ready to Build Something Meaningful?
If you’re excited about Jesus, kids, families, and building teams that thrive, we’d love to hear from you!
Come help us create a ministry where children are known, families are supported, and volunteers are equipped to make an eternal impact.
