Minister to Kids and Families

Are you ready for a new adventure in one of North America's most breathtaking and spiritually significant mission fields? If so, Flourishing Grace Church in Bountiful, Utah would love for you to consider joining our team. Nestled at the foot of the majestic Wasatch Mountains, we are driven by a bold vision to bring the life-changing message of Jesus to one of the fastest-growing yet least-reached states in the nation.

Utah is known, among many things, as a place with lots of kids and young families. In our eight years as a church, one of the most significant avenues for outreach and evangelism has been with kids and families. Our vision for ministry with kids and families is that Flourishing Grace will be a place that not only serves kids well by creating engaging environments where they can begin a flourishing relationship with Jesus, but that we also equip parents as the primary disciples of their children.

We are seeking a Minister to Kids and Families who is passionately in love with Jesus and wholeheartedly committed to advancing His Kingdom for His glory. This individual will have a deep desire to see children come to know Christ and will possess the visionary leadership needed to reach kids and their families in a unique missional context. Working closely with our Minister to Students, this leader will craft and implement a comprehensive spiritual growth strategy for children from birth through high school.
