Job Description: Executive Director

Background Information:
CSSM Ministries Mission Statement: To present and promote the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, primarily to the otherwise unreached in Canada and elsewhere to the ends that the lost shall be evangelized and Christian believers be taught and strengthened in their faith.

The ministry to the youth in these churches is done primarily by volunteers in the church.

This is a significant group of ‘otherwise unreached’ in Canada who need to be reached with the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
