Our church... is a non-denominational multi-site church with four St. Louis-area campuses where we gather each weekend to study this ancient story found in Scripture that is still transforming lives today. We believe church should be a place where believers in Jesus and skeptics can stand side-by-side to study truth and ask tough questions. We blend teaching and worship with art and technology to create a service where you can experience the message of Jesus in practical and life-changing ways.
YouthCrossing Coordinator at our Mid Rivers campus...this part time position will report to and work closely with the campus youth pastor in overseeing many aspects of the youth ministry, some of which include volunteers, occasional teaching (as assigned), as well as creating, implementing, and maintaining teams for the youth ministry (6th-12th grade).

This person will also possess the ability to jump into many different projects and tasks as needed. In the end, their heart will beat for creating a safe environment for students all over the spiritual spectrum to take steps on their journey with Jesus.
