Christ Church’s children’s ministry has grown significantly in the past couple of years, with 30+ Preschool, 25+ Primary, and 15 in high-school. We have a dedicated team of capable volunteers who serve the children sacrificially and faithfully.

We are looking to appoint a youth, children & families worker who will be committed to:

  • our vision of joyfully loving & living for Jesus
  • what we believe to be true, captured in our doctrinal basis
  • loving the children and young people God has given us
  • equipping & supporting our parents
  • helping us as a church family engage the thousands of children and young people in our area with the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ
