St. Luke's has partnered with The Shepherd's Staff to conduct a national search for our next Director of Children’s Ministry. We are a large membership congregation whose mission is to be "an open community of Christians helping people find and give hope through Jesus Christ." St. Luke’s is intentionally striving to be economically diverse, multi-racial, and welcoming to LGBTQ people.

The Children’s Ministry Director oversees the entire children's ministry team, providing ministry to children and families starting from birth though the 4th grade. Over the course of a year, some 900+ unique children will attend our Sunday morning programs, with an average weekly attendance of around 300 children and volunteers. The children’s director also provides oversight to our weekday early childhood program (serving 250+ families in our church and community) and directs multiple community events throughout the year that together provide touch points to thousands of our neighbors. Our church has followed an “Orange” philosophy since 2010 with a high emphasis on parent engagement and holistic family ministry.
