Edmonton, Canada Young Life of Canada - Prairie Region Full time

**Position**: Indigenous Young Life Staff Associate

We have a unique opportunity for someone looking for a ministry position with the passion to be an Indigenous Christian missionary and mentor our Indigenous youth in our local community. Since Young Life began in Canada in 1954, its staff and volunteers have cared enough to leave the comfort of their adult worlds and enter the arena of high school and middle school life. These trained Young Life leaders are committed to friendships with kids - no strings attached. They go where teenagers are and spend time in their world playing road hockey, going to the mall, watching a play or band concert, hiking or skiing. Young Life leaders build bridges of friendship in order to “earn the right to be heard.” We are all about communicating God's love and the Christian message to kids in terms they can understand. Young Life values and respects all young people, and welcomes all teenagers regardless of race or religious beliefs.
