how we serve

Kingdom Work

Training, mobilization, coaching, and coalition-building—everything churches and ministry leaders need to launch, strengthen, and sustain Christ-centered afterschool ministries that create lasting community impact.

staff training for ministry
Staff training

For the people doing the
daily work of ministry.

Christian afterschool and summer programs rise or fall on the quality of their direct care staff. Our staff training equips the direct care team with the competencies they need to engage, develop and serve children and youth well — grounded in 
both best practice and Christian values. Training is available in person, virtually, 
and in group settings.

Consulting

For programs that need a clear
path forward.

Whether you're launching a new program, strengthening your operations, navigating a financial challenge or building a strategic plan for the future — you don't have to figure it out alone.

Drawing on 21 years of hands-on experience leading a Christian afterschool and summer program, we come alongside your ministry to help you evaluate and build systems, solve problems and move forward with clarity and confidence. Available one-on-one or for teams, in person or virtually.

Executive care and coaching

For the leader carrying the
weight of it all.

Leading a Christian afterschool or summer program is more than a job — it's a calling. But callings can be exhausting, and too many executive directors are running on empty with no one invested in their growth and wellbeing.

Our executive care and coaching provides regularly scheduled one-on-one support that addresses leadership development, personal growth and spiritual care — tailored to where you are and what you need.

Some leaders engage us for a defined season; others build an ongoing relationship. Either way, you won't be doing this alone.


Church partnership & consulting

For churches ready to see what's possible.

Whether afterschool ministry is a brand new idea for your church or something you've been quietly considering, your church may already have everything it needs to reach children and families in your community — space, volunteers, and trust.

What may be missing is the vision, strategy and support to make it happen. Wherever you are on the journey, Afterschool as Mission meets you there: Discovering. Awakening. Starting. Strengthening.

Discovering

Never considered afterschool ministry as part of your outreach strategy? You're not alone — and you're in the right place. We'll introduce your leadership to the world of Christian afterschool and summer programming and help you see the mission field already waiting in your community.

Awakening

Aware of afterschool ministry but haven't seen it as a viable option for your church? We'll help your leadership see the opportunity sitting right in your own neighborhood and make the case for why this is Kingdom work worth investing in.

Starting

Ready to launch but don't know where to begin? We'll walk alongside you through the process of building a quality Christian afterschool or summer program from the ground up.

Strengthening

Already running a program but wondering if it's reaching its full potential? We'll help you align what you're already doing with the mission you were called to fulfill.
