Now Hiring

Position Type: Part-Time to Full-Time, Seasonal

Our most important function is as a ministry. People come first. No matter the task
at hand, we do everything in our power to make a place for everyone. We stop
and listen, we pray, we encourage gifts, skills, and purpose. We foster
relationships with people where they are, whether in abundance or in crisis. Our
vision reflects the basics of the early church: “We all have a need, we all have
something to give. If we all share what we have, we all have what we need.”
