  • Collaborate with the TrailKids Curriculum Coordinator to provide parents with intentional resources to extend what is taught on Sundays into the home.
Operations & Administration
  • Under the direction of the TrailKids Pastor, develop and manage a ministry calendar, budget, and systems that ensure smooth and strategic ministry operations.
  • Work with our Next Gen Connections coordinator to oversee the first time guest experience and transition into a consistent small group.
  • Maintain excellence in communication, registration, and safety protocols for all elementary events and environments.
