Overview:

The Youth Pastor provides spiritual leadership and direction for Gateway's ministry to students in grades 6–12, creating an environment where students follow Jesus together, grow in Christ, build meaningful relationships, discover their gifts, and become lifelong disciples. The ministry should be biblically grounded, relationally strong, and culturally relevant, aligned with Gateway's mission and discipleship strategy. The ideal candidate is a spiritually mature, relationally strong leader whom students want to be around and parents trust.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Vision and Leadership — Set and communicate strategy for youth ministry aligned with Gateway's mission; set measurable goals; evaluate ministry health and improve it; reach students outside any church ministry; keep the environment welcoming and safe.

Programming — Lead weekly gatherings, small groups, retreats, mission trips, outreach events, and leadership development, always in service of helping students follow Jesus together, not just keeping them busy. Programming should always serve the larger purpose of helping students “follow Jesus together”, rather than simply keeping students busy or entertained.

Outreach and Evangelism — Develop strategies and events to reach unchurched students; build relationships with schools and community organizations; equip students to invite friends and share their faith.

Ministry Culture — Cultivate a culture of biblical truth, grace, authentic relationships, prayer, worship, fun, and appropriate accountability, modeling Christ-centered character.

Communication and Administration — Communicate effectively with students, parents, volunteers, and staff; coordinate with the Communications Director on branding; prepare the annual calendar and budget; track attendance and ministry metrics; report to leadership.

Cambodia, outside of Phnom Penh

People Group:

Vietnamese in Cambodia

Duration of Term:

4-year renewable

Salary Range: CAD $33,000-$38,000 annually

Additional provisions: shipping/outfitting grant, comprehensive extended health insurance, company pension plan, schooling for minor children, and (in many locations) housing subsidy and exclusive use of a vehicle.

Team Vision:

We exist to facilitate ministries that impact the whole person, encompassing proclamation, discipleship and leadership training principles as core functions striving for sustainability for the purpose of empowering the National Church to impact Cambodia through the power of the Gospel.

For the ministry to the Vietnamese:

There are an estimated 800,000-1,000,000 ethnic Vietnamese who live in Cambodia, of which less than 1 in 500 are evangelical (0.17%). While there is a developing church presence, it is mainly limited to the areas of Phnom Penh and a few other areas. The vision is to see access to the gospel in more areas where there is a Vietnamese presence by engaging Vietnamese nationals in Cambodia into this task. This requires us to walk alongside to train and support and at times walk ahead to lead the way into new ministry opportunities. We envision the need for new creative methodologies in these new areas and a willingness to try new things with the expectations that failures will happen, all for the sake of bringing Jesus to the unreached.
