Staff Needs
Our base is in a very exciting time of growth. We run a wide varieties of ministries and programs. However if we are going to keep growing we need more people! our staff number is the only thing keeping many of these ministries from expanding, as we only have so many man hours. Below we have listed some of the areas where we need people that are passionate about that area of ministry.
If you have already completed a DTS then you can apply to come on staff!
