As part of The Gathering Staff, we demonstrate a growing faith in Jesus Christ. We are mindful of being held to a higher standard of morality where we seek to Do No Harm, Do Good, and Stay in Love with God. If you are unfamiliar with The Gathering we invite you to explore our website to learn more. We specifically encourage you to explore our sermon archive where you can learn more about our teachings and our positions on various social issues. Please note that our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion extends to all, including LGBTQ+ persons, and all staff are expected to share in that commitment. Additionally, please review our mission, vision, and five practices as membership is a requirement for all staff members.

We are seeking an exceptional Director of Gathering Kids to lead, guide, and inspire our multi-site ministry. As the Director, you will not only be responsible for envisioning and executing the future of our kid’s ministry at our McCausland site but also oversee the direction of kids ministry across all sites and coach other site leaders to create a cohesive and impactful ministry.
