Planted in 1997, in Vancouver, WA, we’re a contemporary, evangelical church whose mission is to see people transformed by Jesus as we proclaim the gospel with our words and our lives. We’re just ordinary people who have fallen in love with Jesus and want our friends and neighbors to know Him too. We’re in a season of growth—our Youth Pastor has just become our Associate Pastor—so we’re looking for a new Youth Pastor who loves and lives with Jesus, and is called to join us in fulfilling our mission.

• Team Work — to work in humble partnership with other leaders and the Lead Pastor
• Volunteer Mobilization — to recruit and lead church members to serve and lead by identifying, resourcing, empowering, encouraging and caring for them
• Teaching — the ability to teach regularly at an appropriate level for students and young adults, and occasionally our whole church family
