Illinois
The Kids Pastor at Evangel Church will lead a vibrant ministry dedicated to creating unforgettable, faith-filled experiences for children from birth through 5th grade. This role focuses on guiding kids on their spiritual journey through engaging, merit and incentive-based discipleship while building a seamless pathway that connects childhood faith to student ministry. The Kids Pastor will also partner with parents and families, equipping them to be the primary spiritual influencers in their children’s lives. Additionally, this leader will cast vision for reaching kids in the surrounding community with the love of Christ through creative outreach and compelling programming.

Why I Love This Opportunity

This Kids Pastor role at Evangel Church offers the rare chance to build a lasting legacy in one of Chicagoland’s most dynamic and diverse church communities—a place that truly embodies the kingdom through its celebration of 55+ nations worshiping together under one roof. The church is experiencing incredible momentum with 35% growth in just one year, and they’re investing in a leader who can elevate their children’s ministries with a fun, merit and incentive-based discipleship approach that engages both kids and families.
