Fallbrook Church

Global Student Ministry Lead

Houston,
Texas
The Global Student Lead will oversee the entire student ministry (6th–12th grade) at Fallbrook Church across all campuses. This includes leading and developing the EPIC Students ministry—creating a unified strategy for discipleship, programming, and leadership development that serves both the North Houston and Cypress-Katy campuses. This leader will set the pace for what’s next in student ministry—casting vision, shaping culture, and equipping volunteers and staff to invest deeply in students’ spiritual growth. The Global Student Lead will bring creativity, structure, and relational energy to a thriving ministry that has a strong foundation and is ready for the next season of momentum.

Why I Love This Opportunity

Fallbrook Church is the kind of place that makes you believe in the local church again. It’s vibrant, passionate, and full of people who genuinely love God and love others. You can feel it in the way they worship, serve, and show up for their community.

This opportunity isn’t just about leading a student ministry—it’s about shaping the next generation of leaders in one of the most diverse, growing cities in America. The foundation is already strong: a committed volunteer team, engaged students, and a church that invests deeply in its NextGen ministries. What’s needed now is a leader who can dream, build, and expand the vision.

The Global Student Lead will get to design a model that reaches hundreds of students each week, unify ministry across multiple campuses, and develop leaders who multiply the impact far beyond Houston. For someone who loves student ministry, thrives in large, high-energy environments, and feels called to equip others to lead, this is an incredible moment to step into something both exciting and significant.

About This Organization

Fallbrook Church is a large, multi-site, and predominantly African-American Southern Baptist church located in North Houston, Texas. Founded in 1994 by Senior Pastor Michael A. Pender, Sr., Fallbrook is passionate about reaching people with biblical truth and authentic community.

The church has grown steadily and now averages around 3,500 in weekly attendance across two campuses. In 2023, Fallbrook launched a second campus in Cypress-Katy, which has already surpassed growth expectations. The church is full of life and movement, with a reputation for dynamic worship, powerful teaching, and vibrant outreach.

Every part of Fallbrook—from its ministries to its facilities—reflects its heartbeat for connection and discipleship. Walking through the doors, you immediately feel like part of the family. Smiles, hugs, and warmth define the experience as the church continues to see lives transformed through the gospel.

Location

If you’re seeking a place where your church community is active and welcoming, Fallbrook Church delivers that sense of belonging—ideal for families, singles, and anyone looking for connection. The surrounding area supports a practical lifestyle: relatively affordable housing for Houston, accessibility to shopping, services, and the fact that the population is younger with many households that include children. The location also means you’re not too far from more central Houston amenities while avoiding some of the heavier urban traffic typical of inner city neighborhoods.
