Mission: Culver educates its students for leadership and responsible citizenship in society by developing and nurturing the whole individual, mind, spirit, and body, through integrated programs that emphasize the cultivation of character.
 
Culver Academies is a private boarding school. We enroll students and employ faculty and staff from across the United States and around the world. We are seeking diverse talent to support our mission and enrich our learning environment. At Culver, we are always looking to strengthen our organizational leadership by adding outstanding talent to our faculty and staff whose passion is to serve our students. 
 
Located on the shore of Lake Maxinkuckee, Culver Academies encompasses 1,800 acres of green hills and woodlands, and a historic collegiate-like campus with beautiful Gothic architecture. Our location in Culver, Indiana, offers the best of both worlds; a beautiful, serene setting with access to large cities nearby, including the home of the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. We are also less than two hours away from Chicago and Indianapolis.

RESPONSIBILITIES: Under the supervision of the Director of Spiritual Life, the Protestant Youth Minister helps create an environment that encourages all Protestant students and seekers to investigate and nurture their own Christian identity and the formation of a faith community that responds to the spiritual needs of other students, teachers/staff, and members of our local community. In collaboration with the Spiritual Life Department and the local parish, the campus minister provides pastoral support for the students, faculty, and staff and brings to life a campus rich in spirit, prayer, discipleship, social justice, and Christian preparation leadership in the Church and society.

REQUIREMENTS: A bachelor's degree in theology, ministry, or a related field or commensurate experience is required; an M.Div. or equivalent degree and Ordination (or seeking Ordination) in a mainline Protestant tradition are highly desired. The Protestant Youth Minister must be skilled at engaging and guiding young people in their faith journey and adept at planning, coordinating, and executing various activities and programs. The candidate must possess the ability to build strong relationships, foster a supportive community, effectively minister to the students, enjoy the challenges of supporting a program of diverse people and faith traditions, and be open to supporting interfaith initiatives. Equally important is the ability to maintain accurate records, work within the allocated budget, and collaborate effectively with team members.
