Program Director - Badlands Ministries, Western North Dakota

Is God calling you to live out your faith doing something you love?

Join our year round staff and experience faith, fellowship, fun, freedom, and fireworks.  grow in faith as you help youth and adults to do the same through the programs and retreat you design.  Spend your summers leading a staff you hire who love God and love kids.  See what it is like to stop and ask yourself, "am I really getting paid to have this much fun?"  Experience the freedom of working a job that doesn't stifle creativity, but encourages it, and experience the freedom of a flexible work schedule.

While actual fireworks are prohibited at camp, you can experience the same sense of awe and amazement you get from fireworks by serving a call where you can see God working in you and through you every day ( and unlike playing with fireworkd, your fingers are not at risk.)

Salary is competitive and does include pension and benefits.  For a detailed job description or more information, contact Camp Director Brent Seaks at employment@badlandsministries.org or call 701-290-6973.  View our website at www.badlandsministries.org.
