Hopedale is currently seeking a part-time Family Ministry Coordinator.
The Family Ministry Coordinator focuses on helping parents of school-age children build a network of support and interaction, as well as helping children develop a sense of their place in the community. The Coordinator will make contact with all the families with children in the community, in order to assess family needs and desires, so that programming is specific to the families of HUUC. Based on expressed needs, the Coordinator might facilitate communication among families and Religious Education staff, or plan events for children and their families, such as dinners, social activities and discussions about parenting within the context of UU values. The family ministry coordinator will also engage in outreach to families who visit or who might be interested in participating in our family activities.
Qualifications: Knowledge of and experience with a Unitarian Universalist congregation and strong communication skills are required. We desire some training in or experience with educational programming.
This is a twelve month position, approximately five hours per week, including some Sundays. The stipend is $3000 a year. The Coordinator will be hired by the board of HUUC, will work in partnership with the consulting minister, and will coordinate with the Religious Education committee. Position will begin as soon as possible.
