Now Hiring: Youth and Young Adult Leader
Ottawa, Canada, is a wonderful city full of young people seeking identity, community, and purpose. Things
are shifting drastically for youth and young adults, and we want someone who recognizes these trends
and understands how Scripture speaks to this rapidly changing landscape. We are looking for someone
vulnerable and authentic. A servant-leader who will build a culture for next-generation engagement: one
that moves young people from Sunday or weekly attendance to a deeper connection with Jesus, their
friends, and the community. Lastly, we desire someone who has a heart to reach young people who are
not Christians.
