As the Crossroads Ministry takes off at the beginning of the year with the Alpha series the ministry is looking to hire 1-2 childcare workers with childcare experience.  The hours would be from 6-8pm at the Crossroads Ministry Center every Tuesday starting 01/07/20 until at least the end of March 2020; may be extended until the end of the year.  The hourly wage would be minimum wage and the employee would receive a W-2.  Due to the United Methodist’s rules regarding Safe Sanctuary the applicant must be at least 18 years of age, must attend Safe Sanctuary Training and will need to agree to a background check. Those who are interested either go to love-first.org or stop by the Business Office for an application.  Please email your application to the Business Administrator at sarahholley@love-first.org or turn into the Business Office.  Applications will be accepted until 12/15/19.  Any questions, please call the Business Office at (740) 653-3330.
