  • Teach and develop leaders to build first-level connections within the church, with a long-term transition to the Discipleship Pastor role.
  • Facilitate deeper volunteer engagement and ensure participants' spiritual health.
  • Develop and sustain workflows within the church management software to engage new and existing volunteers.
  • Assist the worship pastor and tech director to create a cohesive, welcoming environment from the parking lot to the lobby to the worship center.
  • Organize and oversee newcomer events, including the Newcomers Lunch.
  • Empower and envision teams to create events and ministry opportunities that connect people to church life.
