Salem Youth Volunteers

For our youth leaders, the biggest expectation we have is that they are actively growing in their own relationship with Jesus. We want our leaders to understand that they aren’t just there to supervise students or help run a program. They have the opportunity to model what following Jesus looks like. Our hope is that a student could look at the way their leader worships, serves, speaks, treats others, responds to correction, and pursues God and see an example worth following. Like Paul says in 1 Corinthians 11:1, “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.”

Along with that, we expect leaders to uphold the values and standards of our church, maintain appropriate and healthy boundaries with students, support the direction of the youth ministry, and be dependable and engaged. Ultimately, we want leaders who genuinely love Jesus, love students, and are committed to helping students take their next steps in their faith.
