Johns Creek Baptist Church (JCBC) is a large congregation in Alpharetta, GA, and affiliated the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. The church is described as warm and welcoming. The congregation's focus is on the inward spiritual journey and the outward journey in mission.
The youth ministry serves students from 6th through 12th grades. There are currently 56 youth on the rolls, with about 25 participating in a typical week. The ministry has strong traditions in its Sunday school and Sunday night grow groups, and retreats are a core component. The ministry benefits from a dedicated space that is attractive, well-maintained, and includes youth-friendly furniture, games, and a dedicated worship space.
The ideal candidate demonstrates a sincere love for youth, has a "growth mindset", and high emotional intelligence. JCBC is looking for a proactive, self-starting team player who can think strategically and build sustainable systems, not just a "pied piper".
