Rec Foundation Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Jubilee Foundation – Part-Time Rec Center Assistant Job Description

Broetje Family Trust is an association of three foundations collectively stewarding a family legacy of "bearing fruit that will last" through servant leadership, community building, and philanthropy. We commit to: 1) live and teach the ethic of Christ-centered service through servant leadership development; 2) nurture and create new communities of healing and mutual service locally and internationally; and 3) place resources at the service of those communities.

Tierra Vida is an initiative of Broetje Family Trust and is housed under Jubilee Foundation, the community building branch of the Trust. Tierra Vida is a safe, resilient neighborhood providing third spaces for residents to come together and discover greater meaning and purpose in their lives while serving one another in community.

Our Statement of Faith in Action

Broetje Family Trust is a Christ-centered organization. We embrace the Bible as the central guide for preparing ourselves to become followers of Jesus Christ. We believe that when God's word comes to live in us, we are empowered to live into a new way of thinking. We are transformed as we submit to God's "good and perfect will" (Rom12:1-2). Our hearts and minds compel us to engage the world differently as we learn to love as Jesus did.

We believe we are guided by the Holy Spirit in nurturing the spirit of all living beings through community. While the human spirit is integral to lasting transformation, it is God's Spirit dwelling within that transforms one's inner being to reflect God's love, leading one to become an ambassador of healing and reconciliation in the lives of those served (1 Cor 2:11-12; 1 Cor 15:45-47).

The lasting impact of our work can be seen in individuals, families, and communities as they shift their thinking to see the world as God sees it. People come to believe that they are deeply loved, have a divine purpose, and are called to something greater than themselves. This belief inspires service and connection as they reach out to others regardless of differences to work together to achieve God's dream of Shalom.
