About The Position

The Events and Ministry Coordinator creates an exceptional Apartment Life experience for residents and onsite staff in an active adult community for people ages 55 and older in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Coordinators plan engaging events, communicate with care and clarity, and offer hospitality and support to help residents build meaningful connections. The role is intended for mission-minded, relational, and responsible people who enjoy meeting new people, planning social activities, and helping others experience God’s unconditional love.

This is an unpaid volunteer position. Instead of wages, the Coordinator receives an apartment at a reduced rate and pays a reduced monthly Apartment Life program fee.

The position requires approximately 12 hours per week, often including daytime hours as well as evenings or weekends, and a minimum two-year service commitment. The role is available in January 2027. People with children or minor dependents living at home are not eligible because of age or life-stage restrictions.

Requirements

• Must be at least 18 years old.
• Must be legally eligible to work in the United States.
• Basic fluency in English, including the ability to create marketing materials and complete required reports.
• Must have employment in the surrounding metro area, remote employment, or another consistent source of income sufficient to independently cover monthly rent and personal living expenses.
• Must have a valid driver’s license, current liability insurance, and reliable transportation for duties such as shopping for events and meeting vendors.
• Must be physically able to use stairs, bend, sit, stand, stoop, and lift up to 25 pounds.
• Must be available for weekly hours, primarily during evenings and weekends when residents are most often home.
• Must commit to the minimum two-year term of service at the assigned apartment community.
• Applicants with children or minor dependents living at home are not eligible to serve.
