Ministry support Coordinator

July - August 2018 • San Diego, CA

What I liked

I liked working with the youth and teaching them about God's word. I really enjoyed exploring the city of San Diego and learning about the culture of it.

What I wish was different

I wish the evening gathering where we did praise and worship lasted longer, because that was a time we all came together and talked about our day and shared where we saw God throughout the day.

Advice

Always stay open to God's word, because you never know what he will have in store for you.

You do a lot of work for pay that doesn’t quite match. You also don’t get a lot of sleep.

Ministry Support Coordinator

May - August 2018 • Benton Harbor, MI

What I liked

I absolutely loved my job. The people at YouthWorks are dedicated to keeping a Christ centered environtment in the workplace. I was serving people in need every day, growing as a Christian, and refining my leadership skills.

What I wish was different

The location placement is chosen for you, and the people you work with are picked by a team as well. While this worked well for me, I think knowing the team ahead of time might lead to better experiences overall.

Advice

Only apply to this job if you are willing to be stretched, as it is a lot of hard work and intensive training right at the beginning to prepare you for the summer ahead.

What I liked

It was an amazing opportunity to grow as an individual. It helped with trouble shooting, team collaboration and communication, and with individual tasks such a as routines or responsibilities.

What I wish was different

That it had more options to run with/ develop personally (as a site) with.

Advice

Know that it will be hard, but if you stick it out it’ll be so rewarding and you will have learned so much.
