About New England Chapel:
About Us:
We are a church, located 40 minutes from Boston, for people who've given up on church but not on God. Over the past two decades, God has used New England Chapel to help many New Englanders -young and old from all kinds of backgrounds- find faith. There are no hard and fast rules, instead we lead with openness, love and we keep it real: Love God. Love others. We're looking for an enthusiastic individual to join our team as our children's ministry director - someone who can adapt to NEC's unique style and vision - who doesn't take themselves too seriously, yet seriously loves the Lord and serving God's people.
Quick facts:
Our mission is, to build authentic community through friendships, small groups and worship where people who have given up on church but not on God can experience, embrace and express the love of God in Jesus Christ so we can be a blessing within and beyond our walls.
First-timers, unchurched, those burnt from church often find a place/feel a pull, and are greatly welcomed in all that we do. Kids Zone is often the first connection for many of these families.
There are 10+ full and part-time staff and many staff volunteers and volunteer leaders
Franklin is a suburban town of about 35,000 people located 40 miles southwest of Boston
Our community is 500+ strong
We believe that a strong ministry to kids and families is a vital element of our desire to bring people to faith
