Job Description

Club Beyond is a Christ-centered community of leaders dedicated to supporting military teenagers and their families through outreach and discipleship. This unique ministry recognizes the extraordinary challenges faced by military teens, who often move an average of seven times during their school years. With nearly 300,000 teenagers of active-duty U.S. military parents stationed worldwide, their identity and sense of belonging are often disrupted by constant relocation. Club Beyond exists to provide a consistent, safe, and welcoming community where these teens can find friendship, hope, resilience, and a deep understanding of God's love and purpose for their lives.
