About the Church

Congregational Presbyterian Church (CPC) is a warm and welcoming congregation in Lewiston, Idaho, formed through a merger of the Presbyterian Church (USA) and the United Church of Christ. They are a family-oriented community with a vibrant spirit, a love for children and youth, and a commitment to nurturing these ministries for the future. CPC is known for its relational ministry approach, strong volunteerism, and openness to new ideas. The congregation is excited to welcome a new leader to help build and grow these ministries while maintaining the caring and inclusive culture they treasure.

About the Ministry

Currently, there are 15 youth on the rolls, with about 5 attending weekly programs, and 20 children, with about 4 actively involved each week. The ministry is supported by a team of 4-5 dedicated parent volunteers and elders, and enjoys ample facilities, including a youth house and an entire floor of the education building. This position is all about nurturing relationships, empowering volunteers, and creating engaging, Christ-centered programs that help kids and families grow together in faith.

- Regularly evaluate and adjust ministry programming to meet the changing needs of the children, youth, and families at CPC.

- Ability to build, motivate, and support a team of volunteers.
