Day Camp Program Facilitator

Halifax, Canada Diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island Full time

**Company description**

The Diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island is the regional organization of Anglican churches. We've got over 90 congregations scattered throughout both provinces.

We have varying ministries seeking to serve people in our local communities. One of our ministries is the Community Roots Day Camp Program.

The purpose of the Community Roots Day Camp Program is to encourage young people to grow in their faith, or to learn about Christianity for the first time, and to develop leadership capacity in communities so that meaningful, local ministry can continue to happen there.

Camp is often an important component of faith formation as well as personal growth and development for children and youth. It provides an intentional time and space to gather with those of a similar age to play, wonder, learn, explore, and, for many, encounter Christianity for the first time. Although some regions and parishes within the diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island offer camp programming during the summer, most do not.

The Community Roots Day Camp Program will help enable parishes or regions that are not currently able to offer summer camp programs to do so through staff support, program development, and volunteer training. This support will help parishes and regions to serve the young people who are in their churches and in the broader community.

**Program Architect**
(Note: Internally we call this position Program Architect, but listed the position title as facilitator for this posting to be more consistent with language used by other organizations. )

Diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island

**Job Status**:This will be a full-time contract position for 4 months.
**Accountable to**:Youth and Family Ministry Coordinator.
**Date**: May 8 to August 28, 2024.

**Program Purpose and Overview**

The purpose of the Community Roots Day Camp Program is to encourage young people to grow in their faith, or to learn about Christianity for the first time, and to develop leadership capacity in communities so that meaningful, local ministry can continue to happen there.

Camp is often an important component of faith formation as well as personal growth and development for children and youth. It provides an intentional time and space to gather with those of a similar age to play, wonder, learn, explore, and, for many, encounter Christianity for the first time. Although some regions and parishes within the diocese of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island offer camp programming during the summer, most do not.

The Community Roots Day Camp Program will help enable parishes or regions that are not currently able to offer summer camp programs to do so through staff support, program development, and volunteer training. This support will help parishes and regions to serve the young people who are in their churches and also in the broader community.

The program will require two four-month staff people (Program Architects). The Program Architects, under the supervision of and in collaboration with the Youth and Family Ministry Coordinator, would develop creative, faith-based camp programming, promote the camps, train volunteers, and lead a volunteer team in delivering camp programming. The camps will be led with the additional staff support of two Camp Leaders.

The camps themselves will take place throughout the diocese, in places where regions or parishes have expressed interest and are able to recruit enough volunteers to support the camp. Each camp will last one week, Monday to Friday and will be a day camp focused on exploring stories of faith and developing an understanding of what they mean for our lives and for the world. This exploration will happen through stories, art, games, and other activities.

**Position Overview**

The Program Architects will primarily be responsible for the planning and delivery of summer camp programs throughout the diocese. They will work closely with the Youth and Family Ministry Coordinator and the Youth and Family Ministry Vision Strategy and Support Team. They will work to develop the capacity of parishes and regions to work with children, youth, and families beyond the summer camp. The Program Architect will share the stories of their work through reports to the Youth and Family Ministry Coordinator and Diocesan Council as appropriate, and through other channels available through the diocese (e.g. Anglican Net News, Diocesan Times, etc.). The Program Architect will collaborate with and supervise local volunteers and Camp Program Leaders.

**Primary Duties and Responsibilities**

The primary tasks and roles of this position are the following:
Planning:

- Visit all sites and facilities that will be part of camp programming and complete SafeR Church audits for each camp.
- Develop programming and schedules for each camp.
- Enable, equip, and support volunteers:

- Create and provide training for all volunteers.
- Provide opportunity for team
