Youth Ministry Description

Are you passionate about applying the Gospel of Jesus Christ and his Holy Word to
relational-discipleship? Do you have a heart for the next generation of youth? If so, please read
on! We are looking for two paid, youth ministry interns, one male and one female.
 

LWEC is an evangelical, Chinese heritage church (Chinese culture, although an asset, is not
required for this role). Most students are 2nd generation Chinese Americans, who have grown
up with Chinese culture and language at home, but American culture and English language at
school. Overflow Youth Group has approximately 70 students from 6th-12th grade.
Intern(s) will work with the Youth Pastor to grow personally in doctrine, leadership, and ministry
