Moraga Valley Presbyterian Church

Kid's Ministry Director

Moraga, California

Why I Love This Opportunity

Chuck Hunt

Associate

MVPC is deeply committed to caring for the children and families in the community and the Bay area. It is well-known for its outreach efforts and its support of kids and their families. The children’s ministry is highly valued within the church, making this a wonderful opportunity for a passionate and visionary leader to step in, become a part of the community, and lead a team of dedicated staff and volunteers.

About This Organization

The Moraga Valley (Lamorinda) and the greater Bay Area are some of the richest harvest fields in the entire country. The culturally diverse people of the local and greater community are multi-generational and many families decide to raise their families in the area as the schools are rated in the top quartile in the state. Young families seeking proximity to San Francisco, Oakland, and Walnut Creek and a safe, family-friendly community choose the Lamorinda area. Mostly, people here have almost no current concept of Christ or church, and the right candidate will see this as an opportunity and blessing to serve the community. MVPC recently hired Brandon Morrow as their new Lead Pastor. He brings excitement to those engaging with Christianity for the first time. Younger families are being drawn to the church through his fresh vision, contagious attitude, and the relational investment he is making in the community.

What a Strong Candidate Would Look Like:

  • Candidates for the next Kid’s Ministry Director for MVPC will look to serve the community and provide opportunities for the church to serve.
