Three well-established United Methodist congregations in Tucson, Arizona - partnering together to create a shared youth ministry - are seeking an energetic and creative full-time Director for Youth Ministries to launch and lead the new initiative. The ministry is envisioned to include a combined Sunday evening youth group, two concurrent Sunday school classes led by volunteers, and a shared discipleship (“confirmation”) class coordinated with the three pastors.
