In addition, this individual will teach students how to treat all people with dignity and love.    PRIMARY DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES: Lead, plan, develop, and evaluate all aspects of youth ministry Empower and mentor youth in their spiritual journey, encouraging students to cultivate a meaningful relationship with Christ. Foster caring relationships with youth and their families. Develop and implement youth small groups, house parties, events, activities, mission trips and camps.

Coordinate and facilitate a Confirmation program effectively utilizing the support of volunteers, staff and mentors. Continue to identify and implement best practices and resources in youth ministry programming. Create or select curriculum that supports our mission and doctrine of the Methodist Church. In conjunction with our missions team, dedicate approximately 5-10 hours a week planning and organizing year-round missional outreach efforts. Critical metrics for success include: Identify and partner with community groups, businesses, and organizations to further enrich missions programming. A unique monthly outreach opportunity that successfully engages an increasing number of laity in local, national and/or international missions. Priority is placed on ongoing missional relationships rather than "one-off" projects. Utilize effective communication tools, resources, and practices (i.e., web page, social media, newsletter, email, etc.) to effectively promote participation in the youth ministry program. Involve youth in worship, fundraising, and missional/outreach opportunities. Ensure that all staff, volunteers, and leaders working with youth have completed “Safe Sanctuaries” training and that guidelines/policies are enforced.
