We need someone who is an excellent connector. She will be expected to identify new, marginal, and hurting women in our congregation and to help work them into the fabric of our community where they can find healing and acceptance.
She needs to have the freedom to dedicate herself to this full-time job and the maturity to maintain healthy boundaries between work and life. She needs to have demonstrated healthy relationship skills and contentment with who God has made her. She should be comfortable speaking in front of large and small groups and able to teach.
