Work With Us

Children's Ministry Coordinator (19 hrs/wk)

St John's Wishart is an Evangelical Anglican church and we long for every generation to be able to come to know and turn to Jesus. We are a church that is committed to the authority of God's word and biblical teaching undergirded by dependance on God through prayer. As such, we are seeking to employ a Children's Ministry Coordinator to enable and facilitate the discipleship of our current children and the outreach to our community.

Currently, we have only a few children regularly join us on a Sunday and our volunteers do an amazing job leading this ministry but we would love to grow and expand both the number of children and the team. Furthermore, we currently do not have anything happening for the outreach to kids in our community. We long for children from every background, language, and culture to hear about Jesus and the successful applicant will help us achieve both these objectives of making and maturing disciples of Jesus.

If you have a heart to reach young people for Jesus, please see the position description below. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get into contact with Michael at michael@stjohnswishart.com.au

Our Values, Mission, and Vision

At St John's, we want to glorify God through centring on His word. Therefore we value:

  • Biblical Teaching - We value teaching that seeks to understand God’s revelation of himself to us in individual books of the Bible and through the whole context of Scripture.
  • Prayerful Dependence - We value praying to God as both a privilege and a responsibility for the individual and the whole church.
  • Care - We value care for one another as members of one family in Jesus Christ.
  • Intergenerational - We value people of different generations and look for opportunities both to minister to different generations and to foster relationships between gpenerations.
  • Serving with Gifts - We value the people God has given us with their various gifts, skills and talents. We want to use the gifts he has entrusted to us to serve Him and each other.
  • Mission-Driven - We value the gospel and want it to shape our thinking and our work together so that we might see a community that knows the freedom and life that are in Christ alone.
