Why Create a Career Ministry?

You need to do this...Why?

-        It used to take from one to six months to find a job

-        In today's market, it can take a year or more for a job seeker to find a position.

-        The market is tough and nowhere is it tougher than here.

-        The assistance that employers used to provide has diminished.


People just do not get the help they need:

-        Losing a job is one of the biggest blows a person can get; frequently leading to depression and withdrawal from the loved ones and church community most able to help

-        They need support and encouragement

o       This is a very personal thing

o       Often it is more comfortable talking with someone who is in the same situation

-        They need guidance,

o       Help with networking skills

o       Help with their resume and cover letters

o       Help with interviewing methods

o       Guidance with job search tips

o       And much more...

-        They need people who care.

o       People who understand

o       People who they can trust sharing the disappointments that are part of the search

o       People who can coach them on their feelings, anxieties, their grief

Where better to get this help than at your place of worship?
