Director of Creative Arts & Worship

 

Village Church is looking for a creative and inspired follower of Jesus to join our diverse and energetic team. We are praying that you will find a vocational home with us.

Our desire for creative arts and worship that shapes and disciples our people is newly focused and defined. If you get excited to consider all the ways art and creativity can impact a faith community, then we want to talk to you!

Village Church endeavors to be a missional, multicultural community in Christ, aiming for an integrated spiritual life where our differences are known and honored, but our preferences are laid aside when we participate in corporate worship. Your role would be to deepen our ministry goals of reconciliation through discipleship and spiritual maturity for all generations, ethnic cultures, and spiritualities at Village. It’s a big task so we want your role to be in collaboration with a team of ministry leaders that you would pastor and direct.

We are praying that you are desiring to see something new for the body of Christ when it comes to how we interact with art and worship. We are praying that you will deny imposter syndrome and consider what God could do through you. We are praying that you don’t have all the answers but love to figure things out.

Hear how our Lead Pastor Paul Choi teaches us about our call to be an integrated church.
