About Bethel World Outreach Church
Bethel is a multi-ethnic, multi-generational, non-denominational church that has always put a high value on what they call the “3 D’s” (Devotion, Diversity, and Discipleship) as well as reaching the next generation. Outreach is more than simply part of the church name. It truly is a large part of who Bethel is.

The Student Pastor will come alongside parents, students, and volunteers to provide spiritual direction and Biblical counsel. He or she must be a recruiter and an equipper of people.

What's Exciting About This Opportunity
I love a church that reflects the diversity of the Kingdom of God and Bethel is definitely that. Bethel also understands that God is active and working in the lives of kids and students right now and wants to have ministries that facilitate that work.
