Project Manager (Special Events Worship Experience Programming)

At Elevation Church, we look to link arms in ministry with those who are passionate about stepping into their God-given calling. While we’re a staff from all different backgrounds and walks of life, our mission is the same - to reach people with the Gospel. We’re grounded in scripture and guided by our values, so check out our website (www.elevationchurch.org) to be sure you’re aligned before you step into the application process with us, particularly paying attention to our Beliefs and our Code.
