Family Ministry Director Job Passaic area,New Jersey USA,Education / Teaching

Position: Family Ministry Director.

Church of Living Grace is a Bible-based, family-oriented church with two vibrant congregations;
English and Cantonese, serving together as one body. The main purpose of Family Ministry is to empower families to take spiritual leadership in the home and develop disciples (Deut. 6:4-9; Titus 2; 2 Timothy 2; Psalm 145); helping families to understand the role and meaning of family in the life of Christians and the Church; empowering families in a God-honoring, kingdom-building way;

helping families live the teachings of Jesus with one another; equipping and supporting families as they learn to serve others.

Therefore, family ministry is a family‑equipping ministry involving the church and the home as partners, to teach children, develop leaders, and equip parents to train up and disciple the next generation.
