Teen Life Internship Teacher/Tutor
ABOUT NEW CITY KIDS
New City Kids is a place where children and teens come to experience love, life and transformation. Our goal is to help children understand their God given value. Not only do we expect children and teens to be leaders; we train for it. All teens who come to New City Kids are given extensive training in leadership and other life skills. All teens are invited to become involved... in our various worship bands, professional visits, performing arts opportunities and small groups. Our hope is to be able to walk the road of life with a child from age 6 to 18 and set them on a path of life transformation that will stay with them long after their last day at New City Kids.
