Children’s Ministry Director

Join to apply for the Children’s Ministry Director role at Peninsula Covenant Church

Peninsula Covenant Church is a growing, dynamic, community-focused church in Redwood City, CA. The beautiful 16-acre campus serves as host to our worship gatherings, children and adult ministries, community center (including swim and fitness activities), preschool, after-school care, and summer programs. Healthy and successful team members are those who Seek Jesus First, are Humble, Stay Hungry, Extend Grace, and Prioritize Team. We actively support a culture of collaboration, and kindness across our PCC teams. Join us in our vision, as we exist to know Jesus deeply, follow Him faithfully, and guide the next generation to do the same.

Principal Objective

The Children’s Ministry Director nurtures the spiritual formation of PCC’s children (infants–5th grade) as we live out our mission to know Jesus deeply, follow Him faithfully, and guide the next generation to do the same. This leader will cultivate a culture of discipleship and belonging where kids encounter the gospel, grow in faith, develop meaningful relationships, and grow in leadership, knowing that forming leaders at every age is part of how we make disciples. This role oversees Sunday and midweek ministry, volunteer development, and family partnership and community, all aligned with PCC’s discipleship pathway. In addition, this leader will help integrate the gospel into PCC’s community-facing programs (Summer Camp, After Care Community Center, PE+, and Preschool) so that children experience a consistent Christ-centered witness across all PCC environments.

Principal Working Relationships

The Children’s Ministry Director will report to the Spiritual Formation Pastor and work closely with other ministry directors and pastors across PCC ministries. The Director will lead and mentor the Children’s Ministry Coordinator and part-time Children’s Ministry Associate, and will also work in partnership with parents and volunteers.
