As a Youth Pastor at Edgewood Community Church, you’ll shepherd students from 6th–12th grade through the transformative years of adolescence, equipping them to grow as disciples of Jesus. This role blends relational discipleship, team development and gospel-centered teaching with a heart for recruiting and empowering caring adult leaders who walk alongside students.
Qualifications Character

Have an authentic and growing relationship with the Lord, practicing the spiritual habits that we desire to reproduce in our ministry.
Be teachable, humble, "hungry" for excellent ministry and a reproducing disciple of Jesus.
Education and Experience
An undergraduate degree with Bible training is preferred. Seminary or special training in youth ministry is a plus, being a lifelong learner is a necessity.
At least five years' experience working in youth ministry is preferred. (If that experience is as a volunteer, there must be a strong recommendation from the pastor of that ministry.)
Aligned with the EFCA Statement of Faith, credentialed (or willingness to be) by the EFCA.
Practical Skills
A working knowledge of adolescent spiritual development.
Strong organizational and time management skills.
A proven track record of recruiting and training volunteers.
Effective teaching skills, preferably when engaging with youth and/or a willingness to grow in this area.
If you’re passionate about partnering with parents, integrating youth into the full life of the church and creating an environment where students experience fun, acceptance and Christ-centered community, we invite you to fill out the interest form and help shape the next generation of disciples at Edgewood.
Located in the heart of central Wisconsin, Edgewood Community Church is a growing, gospel-centered, multi-campus church with a compelling story. We began in Waupun, a community of about 11,000, and have steadily expanded to four campuses, welcoming around 1,300 people in weekly attendance. Since planting in 1996, Edgewood has remained committed to biblical preaching, simple and effective ministry and a passion for multiplying gospel impact. Our multi-site model allows each campus to reflect its local community while sharing a common foundation of gospel, community and mission.
Edgewood is an elder-led, theologically conservative church with Reformed leanings, yet we are marked by a welcoming spirit that graciously embraces people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Our leadership culture is grounded in health and unity, driven by a deep love for Christ and His church. We are excited to keep expanding our reach and have a heart for planting and strengthening local churches across our region.
