Job Description

Are you willing to join an ADVENTURE? We have missionaries from across the country answer the call to be missionaries in some of the most challenging neighborhoods of our country. In many ways, our missionaries leave behind a lot of comforts of familiar life to invest their hearts into teens living in the inner-city. Do you have a heart for Jesus, and want to make Him known? Our missionaries are disciples of Christ themselves - and from that relationship, they step forward to journey alongside teens in their own relationship with Christ. It is in giving that we receive... and it is in giving of ourselves that our missionaries uncover a radical life in His LOVE. Now accepting applications for new Missionaries to join Vagabond Missions starting in June 2025! The Purpose of a VM Missionary: To introduce inner-city youth to Jesus Christ and his Church through evangelization, outreach, and community building. The VM Missionary life is at its core, relational, as it is friendship and discipleship that are the primary conduits of the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the inner-city youth whom Vagabond Missions is privileged to serve. The Primary Task: This Vagabond Missions approach is based on the understanding that the primary task of youth ministry is to:

  • Love and serve youth where they are in life.
  • Encourage youth in developing their relationship to God.
  • Provide them with opportunities for nurture and growth.
  • Invite young people in the sacramental life of the Catholic Church.
Responsibilities:
  • Attendance at the following meetings is expected: Weekly Staff Meetings, Outreach Nights, Bible Study/ Worship, Core Team Meetings, and Committee Meetings.
  • Daily Outreach in the city. (schools, parks, etc)
  • Disciple 3-5 young people in ongoing formation.
  • Aide in basic planning of events, errands, and transportation needs.
  • Work in concert with the gifts and talents of other staff members and maintain a teamwork mentality.
  • Fundraising.
  • Assist in logistical needs with missionaries and ministry (Driving ministry vans, helping with pick ups, drop offs, and transportation to and from ministry events).
Organizational Relationship and Supervision: Missionaries report directly to team leaders for ministry guidance as well as mission Area Directors as their primary supervisors. Missionaries are stationed at any one of Vagabond Missions' nine area locations throughout the United States for a minimum two year commitment: Pittsburgh (PA), Steubenville (OH), Philadelphia (PA), Greenville (NC), Mobile (AL), Oklahoma City (OK), Wichita (KS), Indianapolis (IN), and Baton Rouge (LA). Final decisions regarding the stationing of missionaries involves discernment of both the preferences of the missionary as well as the ministry needs of Vagabond Missions at the time. Qualifications and Aptitudes:
  • Must embrace personal goals of Christian, disciplined living, the pursuit of virtue, and assent to the dogmatic and moral teachings of the Catholic Church.
  • A bachelor's degree in a related field is highly preferred, but not required.
  • Must have both a good work ethic as well as the versatility to work with shifting schedules as well as changing goals and duties.
  • Must have excellent written and verbal communication skills, and conflict management skills.
  • Must possess a proven ability to work effectively with youth, diverse individuals, and teams of volunteers.
  • Must have a valid, up to date Driver's License (any questions regarding this qualification can be directed to Director of Recruiting or HR Director).
Job Status Details: Position is full-time (40 hours per week), Salaried (provided through personal support raising). Benefits include housing, 7 days vacation, monthly spiritual day, options for comprehensive health insurance benefits as well as (403b) retirement account contribution.
