Lethbridge, Canada Lethbridge Christian Tabernacle Full time

Overview:
The Tab is a down-to-earth, Jesus-centered community that’s aims to build real relationships with youth—especially those who are facing challenges. Many of the teens we serve come from low-income families or have experienced trauma. We believe that church should be a place where they feel safe, seen, and supported. Our goal is to meet students where they are and walk with them through life. Our hope is to help them discover who God is and how deeply He loves them. We’re committed to a trauma-informed approach that emphasizes trust, consistency, and connection, because we know that growth happens in the context of healthy relationships—and that’s where our faith walk begins.

**Key Responsibilities**:

- Build strong, healthy relationships with youth through engaging activities and consistent presence
- Help plan and lead a week long Christ centred summer camp geared for low-income and at-risk youth
- Provide mentorship and emotional support to children and teens as they navigate life challenges
- Create and maintain a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for all families
- Share personal stories of faith and growth to encourage and inspire young people
- Collaborate with staff and volunteers to develop a well-rounded, impactful youth program
- Keep accurate records of attendance, incidents, and milestones
- Assist in creating inviting and creative spaces where kids feel at home and cared for

**What We’re Looking For**:

- Experience working with children or youth in an educational, camp, or community setting
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to connect across age groups
- Confident in managing groups of youth in a calm and encouraging way
- A heart full of patience, empathy, and understanding for young people from diverse backgrounds
- Basic knowledge of child development and youth engagement strategies
- Flexible and adaptable when things shift or unexpected needs arise
- Comfortable working independently and as part of a team
- Valid driver’s license and clean driver’s abstract is an asset
- Current Criminal Record Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening

**What You’ll Get**:

- Opportunities for training and growth
- A positive, supportive team environment that values collaboration
- Ongoing mentorship and encouragement as you grow in your own leadership
