Children's Minister
​Vision Church

Return to Ministry Opportunities in New York
​Full-time
 
Church Description


Vision Church is a non-denominational, Asian-American Christian church in New York City planted in 1997 by Oversea Chinese Mission Church. Approximately a hundred individuals gather for worship each Sunday and a large number of these congregants are involved in small groups (called growth groups). Our congregation is comprised of young and middle-aged professionals, couples, and young children.
 
Our 3-5 Year Vision:
  • Pursue our relationship with God both personally and collectively by making Bible reflection and corporate prayer integral aspects of our church life.
  • Serve our Vision community by exercising our primary giftings and strengths and discipling specific individuals that God has put on our hearts.
  • Cultivate a missional outlook by looking for opportunities to share and reflect Jesus and by being intentionally missional with specific individuals outside of the church.

Candidate Duties and Responsibilities
  • Develop a vision and structure for Vision Church’s children’s ministry that facilitates spiritual maturity, relational growth, and church-wide involvement.
  • Craft and implement a children’s church curriculum for all children’s age groups.
  • Disciple, teach, and provide our children with a model for walking with Jesus.
  • Partner with parents to facilitate day-to-day discipleship at home.
  • Train church staff, teachers, assistants, and mentors to minister to and disciple children.
  • Work with Senior Pastor and elders to provide spiritual oversight and direction for the church.

Candidate Requirements
  • A leader with a strong walk and relationship with Jesus.
  • Strong relational and discipleship skills and spiritual giftings in leadership, pastoring, training, teaching, administration, and exhortation.
  • A heart for New York City and deep understanding of the City’s unique dynamics and challenges.
