Job Description

Saint Cecilia is located in West Houston and is a large parish in a beautiful area of the city. Our youth ministry program has 450 registered participants in our high school program and 250 in the Junior High program. Our staff includes 2 full-time youth ministers and a part time secretarial assistant. We also maintain an incredible and talented Core Team of adult individuals and an incredible group of peer ministers who participate in our “Militia Mariae” group. Militia Mariae is based on service, leadership and discipleship and have a spirituality founded in Marian Consecration.

Some of the “perks” of St. Cecilia youth ministry include a paid cell phone plan and a “comp day” each week to compensate for Sunday work. We have a brand new youth room with offices and auditorium where we house our events. Not to mention that our teens are incredible!

I feel that the Holy Spirit has blessed this program in so many ways- but I know there is so much more He wants to do! Some of the areas that I am really looking for help in growth include growing our Junior High Ministry, improving Full Active Conscience Participation at Mass and outreach to the male population of our teens. I am hoping to find an individual who has new ideas and experience in these areas!
We are searching for an individual who is passionate and compassionate in regards to young people. We would love to find someone who has experience in youth ministry who is not intimidated by large crowds and craziness! Musical skills are preferred and strong public speaking skills are imperative.

About our Parish / School / Organization

Our parish is home to 4500 families in the West Houston area. About a third of our population is spanish speaking and ministered to by our dynamic Hispanic Ministry and our 3 spanish speaking preists. Saint Cecilia also supports a day school that ministers to pre-k 3 through 8th grade. I have been at Saint Cecilia for 6 1/2 years and I am excited to welcome a new hire to help me continue to grow our program. My experience at Saint Cecilia has been extremley blessed, especcially in the area of community and fellowship. The people of St. Cecilia are incredibly generous in thier time, talent and treasure and especcially in their affection. Our pastor couldn't be more supportive of the program.
