As a staff, we seek to live by God’s Word, seeking wisdom from the Spirit, as we bring the gospel to our neighbors and the nations, encourage and celebrate people, and invite them into a life of purpose. We are one team with one mission: to love God, love people, and make disciples of Jesus Christ.

We do not take lightly the call we believe God has placed on our staff to shepherd our people and push back darkness. Therefore, we require our employees to agree with The Village Church’s Expectations of Membership, Statement of Faith, and commit to exhibit a lifestyle that is consistent with the same. Likewise, we are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for our children and adults in our ministry programs. We take all forms of abuse seriously. As a part of that commitment, we have preventative measures in place to safeguard each child, as well as those who serve them. These preventative measures include awareness training, skillful screening processes, policies and procedures, background checks, and monitoring and oversight to help us maintain compliance and accountability for abuse prevention. Furthermore, we understand and follow our reporting obligations in accordance with the state of Texas.

If you feel called to be a part of this mission, we encourage you to apply for a job. Due to the large number of applications that we receive, we are only able to contact candidates selected for interviews. Interested in planting or revitalizing a church?
