YOUTH PASTOR
Fort Saskatchewan Alliance Church


Fort Saskatchewan Alliance Church is extending an open invitation into Youth Ministry.  We would like prospective candidates to prayerfully consider a life of ministry with our church and community family.  

Fort Saskatchewan is a growing family friendly community just 15 minutes outside of Edmonton AB.  
Fort Saskatchewan Alliance Church desires to walk faithfully with Jesus Christ. Therefore, we are seeking to be “Word Centered” in all that we are and do.  FSAC is a mid-sized church that still maintains a distinctive family feeling.  We worship together in a contemporary way, and have a driving passion to be a “mentoring centre” that trains and builds up generations of people to spread the great treasure of the gospel to those who do not yet see.  

Presently, we are seeking a Youth Pastor that can come and be apart of our ministry team.  As a ministry team we seek to be purposeful and passionate with our time and energy so that we can pursue God and all that He has planned for us to be and do in the life of Fort Saskatchewan and beyond.  
We want to work with a Youth Pastor that is focused and committed to seeking God and shepherding people.

Our recently developed Vision Prayer and Core Values that make up the heartbeat of our church are:

“Father with Hearts lit from the fire of heaven
We long to be a people grounded in Your Truth
And immersed in the joy of Your Presence
Ignite a passion in us to spread the flame of Your Gospel
to those who do not yet see. ~Amen”
