STUDENT MINISTER
SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH; CHIPLEY, FL — 2010-2016
SALARY: $6,500
I inherited the student ministry in the middle of a few issues within the church. At the beginning
the majority of the adult leaders left for various reasons and the majority of the high school
students left because they didn’t like being the same age as me. Over the past five years I have
worked with students and parents to build up leadership. I also offered my help in the areas of
graphics and website management. The churches current website, shilohbaptist.net was created
through BridgeElement, a content management site that allows for the use of minimal coding.
Besides graphics, I also extended a hand of service wherever was needed.
