COLLEGE LEADERSHIP 2021-22 APPLICATIONS!

We are so excited to officially open applications for College Leadership for the 2021-22 school year!

      COLLEGE LEADERSHIP is an opportunity for you, as college students, to serve our church together, to grow as followers of Jesus together, and to lead others as you develop as leaders together! We are looking for students currently attending college who are highly motivated, hard-working, and spiritually hungry. College Leadership will require a significant amount of your time and effort, but we believe it will also make a substantial impact on your life, your walk with Jesus, and your leadership journey.

      While many of us feel ill-equipped or underqualified to step into leadership, remember this: God doesn’t call the equipped; he equips the called! If you are a follower of Jesus who wants to grow in your walk and serve others, we believe you are perfectly positioned to serve and to lead. So don’t stop here- keep reading!

      We believe that the Overflow Intern Team and Overflow Community Groups are great places for college students to lead, but we also know that there are other incredible leadership opportunities at our church- opportunities that may even be a better fit for you! Through College Leadership, we want to introduce you to more opportunities for more of you to serve, grow, and lead together through our church. Below you will find some helpful information regarding College Leadership!

      In the application, you can indicate multiple leadership opportunities that interest you. Our church is committed to helping you to find your next step when it comes to your leadership journey. Let’s take a closer look!

College Leadership has two tracks: INTERNSHIPS & GROUP LEADERSHIP.

(The ideal commitment for both is the entire 2021-22 school year.)

INTERNSHIPS

  • Internships are a chance to be a part of a team of interns that serve within a particular ministry of our church. The goal of these internship teams is to be extensions of the staff and champions of the ministry!
  • All internships are unpaid and require approximately 10-15 hours a week, with at least part of that commitment during daytime hours which could conflict with your class schedule or other obligations. It is vitally important that you prioritize these time commitments in your weekly schedule if you are invited into one of these internships.
  • The ideal commitment for all internships is the entire 2021-22 school year.

Internship opportunities for 2021-22 include:

  • Kids Ministry Internship
    • Specific Tasks: organizing volunteers, working with kids, planning events, media, writing
    • Gathering: Sunday mornings (serve one service, attend one service)
    • Intern Hours: Thursday 12:30-2:00pm, weekly hours as well

GROUP LEADERSHIP

  • Group Leadership is an incredible way to lead kids & students in their walks with God through small groups and community groups. Opportunities include leading students from elementary school all the way up to college. 
  • All group leaders are unpaid and require roughly 5-10 hours a week, primarily one night a week leading your group and flexibility throughout the week as you reach out and connect with students in your group. 
  • The ideal commitment for all group leadership opportunities is the entire 2021-22 school year.
  • Community Group Leaders for Overflow do need to be upperclassmen entering their junior or senior year in college.

College Leadership Expectations

      The expectation for both Group Leaders and Interns is that Port City Community Church would be your church home. Making Port City your church home looks like attending Sunday Gatherings consistently and growing as a real champion of our church. This expectation is not to exclude anyone; rather, we have learned over the past few years that, to get the most out of your involvement and to pour the most into your leadership, it is crucial for your involvement to be focused, going deep in one place instead of being spread thin in multiple places. 

If you are ready to serve in some amazing ministries, learn from some incredible people in our church, grow in your walk with Jesus through consistent encouragement and challenge, and develop into the leader God has designed you to be, we would love for you to apply!

Check out our College Leader Interest Meeting from 3/16 if you’d like to hear more about these opportunities!

      Applications are due on or before Wednesday, April 7th!

If you have any questions, please email clay.everett@portcitychurch.org.

Student Leaders

COLLEGE LEADERSHIP 2020-21 APPLICATIONS!

We are so excited to officially open applications for College Leadership 2020-21!

      COLLEGE LEADERSHIP is an opportunity for you, as college students, to serve our church together, to grow as followers of Jesus together, and to lead others as you develop as leaders together! This opportunity is not for everyone. We are looking for students currently attending college who are highly motivated, hard working, and spiritually hungry. College Leadership will require a significant amount of your time and effort, but we believe it will also make a significant impact on your life and in your personal leadership journey.

      While many of us feel ill-equipped or under qualified to step into leadership, remember this: God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called! If you are a follower of Jesus who wants to grow in your walk and serve others, we believe you are qualified. So don’t stop here, keep reading!

      We know that the Overflow Intern Team and Community Groups are great places for college students to lead, but we also have many more leadership opportunities through our church- opportunities that may even be a better fit for you! So this year we are introducing more opportunities for more of you to serve, grow, and lead together as college students. Below we have more information about the opportunities that are open to you for next school year!

College Leadership has two tracks: INTERNSHIPS & GROUP LEADERSHIP.

(The ideal commitment for both is the entire 2020-21 school year.)

INTERNSHIPS

  • Internships are a chance to be a part of a team of interns that serve within a particular ministry of our church. The goal of these internship teams are to be extensions of the staff and champions of the ministry! This year we have several new Internship opportunities that we are really excited about. Internship opportunities for 2020-21 include internships in Children’s Ministries, Middle & High School Ministries, and Overflow. As well as internships with our Port City Production Team- which serves the different ministries of our church including Overflow and Sunday Gatherings, and our Port City Welcome & Connect Team- which is similar to Overflow’s Host Team but for our Sunday gatherings.
  • All internships are unpaid and require approximately 10 to 15 hours a week. Internships require time commitments during day time hours which could conflict with your class schedule or other commitments.
  • It is vitally important that if you are invited into one of these Internships that you prioritize the time commitments in your weekly schedule.

Here some of the specific time commitments for the Internships:

-Children’s Ministry Internships: Sunday mornings (attending one service) & Wednesdays 3:00-5:00pm

-Middle School Internships: Wednesdays 3:30-9:30pm

-High School Internships: Sundays 3:30-9:30pm

-Overflow Internships: Tuesdays 3:30-9:30pm & Thursdays 3:30-5:30pm

-Production Internship: Mondays 3:30-5:30pm 

-Welcome & Connect Internship: Sunday mornings (attending one service)  & Wednesdays 3:00-5:00pm 

GROUP LEADERSHIP

  • Group Leadership is an opportunity to lead students in their walks with God through small groups and community groups. Opportunities include leading students from elementary school, all the way up to college. 
  • All group leaders are unpaid and require roughly 5 to 10 hours a week, primarily one night a week leading your group and flexibility throughout the week as you reach out and connect with students in your group. 
  • Community Group Leaders for Overflow do need to be upperclassmen, entering their junior or senior year in college.

Here some of the specific time commitments for the Internships: 

-Elementary School Small Groups: Sundays at 9am, 11am, or 5pm 

-Middle School Small Groups: Wednesdays 6-9pm

-High School Small Groups: Sundays 6-9pm

-Overflow Community Groups: Thursdays 6-9pm

College Leadership Expectations

      The expectation for both group leaders and interns is that Port City Community Church would be your church home. Making Port City your church home looks like attending Sunday Gatherings consistently and growing as a genuine champion of our church. This expectation is not intended to exclude anyone, rather we have learned over the past few years that, to get the most out of your involvement and to pour the most into your leadership, it is crucial for your involvement to be focused, going deep in one place instead of being spread thin in multiple places. 

      If you are ready to serve in some amazing places and with some incredible people in our church, grow in your walk with Jesus through consistent encouragement and challenge, and develop into the leader God has designed you to be, we think you should apply! 

Check out our Zoom College Leader Interest Meeting from 4/16 if you’d like to hear more about these opportunities!

Overflow Internship 2018-19!

/0 Comments/in /by

Processed with VSCO with a4 preset

We are excited to open applications for the 2018-19 Overflow Internship Team!!! 

It takes a lot of people to make Overflow what it is. With that in mind we are looking for highly motivated, organized, relational, hard working students to join our Overflow Intern Team!

The Overflow Intern Team is a collection of college students who unite under a common vision to be a champion for Overflow, to be a voice for our students, and to be an extension of the staff. College students who apply and are accepted will quickly find themselves a part of a team and welcomed into a family! Interns will work together to accomplish team tasks, while also serving a specific role under the leadership of an Overflow Staff member. Time on the Overflow Intern Team will provide students with an incredible experience and valuable training in ministry, leadership, and life!

The ideal commitment is for the entire 2018-19 school year- this will be a large factor in choosing our interns for next year. However, there could be exceptions made for students who can only fully commit to one semester (due to graduation or school major requirements). These internships are unpaid and require approximately 10 hours a week- the largest chunk of that time focused on Tuesday night services.

If you are interested in joining our intern team, please fill out this short application. Also, if you are interested, check out some of the specific areas we are looking for intern help in the section below.

Applications are due by May 31st. If you have any questions, please email Zack.Hamby@portcitychurch.org.

Intern Roles:

Our internship positions will not be limited to these specific roles, but these are some of our anticipated ministry needs!

Host Team – Create welcoming environments where students know and believe “they belong here”!

Host Team Interns work to create engaging and welcoming environments every night at Overflow. An environment where every student can believe “they belong”. These Interns set-up all Host Team spaces, they will organize, build, and communicate with their specific team of students, they will lead Host Team meetings, and facilitate and manage volunteers and environments.

Connect – Lead the charge in helping students to find their place at Overflow!

Connect Interns lead the charge in helping students to find their place at Overflow! The ultimate goal is to connect students into their next step in their walk with Christ. There is a large focus on helping students to relationally connect with their peers and/or with a leader at Overflow. These Interns will set up all Connect spaces, coordinate Connect volunteers, and facilitate clean-up of environments after Overflow!

Hospitality – Cultivate atmospheres where team members, guests, and staff feel like family!

Hospitality Interns cultivate friendly and generous atmospheres where team members, guest speakers, and staff feel like family! A green room culture like this allows the Overflow band and communicators to focus on leading students close to Jesus! These Interns will set up all backstage spaces, coordinate Hospitality volunteers in preparation of Tuesday night dinners, host guest speakers, and facilitate the clean-up of spaces after Overflow.

Media – Produce content that capture students attention and deliver clear messages!

Media Interns work with staff to produce content that capture students attention and deliver a clear message. These Interns will help design social media content, photography, videography, print material, graphic content for Tuesday night services, and assist the Intern Team in set up and clean up of all environments at Overflow.

Production – Facilitate engaging worship experiences where students can encounter Jesus!

Production Interns lead the way to create engaging worship experiences where students are free to have real Jesus encounters. Worship experiences that are authentic, accessible, and applicable to everyday life. These Interns will set up all Production spaces, learn and serve in various production roles, and clean up environments after Overflow.

Thanks for your interest! Let us know if you have any questions.

SEND 20 – Recap

/0 Comments/in , /by

This semester we wanted to make an impact in our world through our partnership with a seminary in Guatemala, called SETECA. So we made a goal to provide 20 scholarships for students to afford Seminary training in order to be equipped and sent out to impact the world!

This goal had us both excited and nervous. We feared that our goal was to high or our timeframe was too short. But thanks to YOUR generosity, we were able to afford more than 20 scholarships!

Here are some of the students we were able to help:

Processed with VSCO with a6 preset

We wanted to give you a look at some of the specific students we empowered through SEND20:

Meet Diego:

Diego came to the seminary “SETECA” from Ecuador. Last year he served as the student body president. This year he is studying in Masters of Theology program. Diego feels God’s calling to do church leadership training in the rural areas of Ecuador. Because of SEND20, we were not only able to make an impact in Guatemala, but also in the future of Ecuador!

Meet Raul & Angela:

Raul & Angela came to SETECA from Spain. Angela is studying counseling and Raul is studying Bible. Raul is involved in a teaching ministry in their local church. They both serve in pastoral care with SETECA married students that live on campus. They are seeking GOd’s will as to where He would have them minister upon graduation.

Meet Elizabeth:

Processed with VSCO with a6 preset

Elizabeth came to SETECA with her family from Bolivia. She is studying Counseling. Alberto, her husband, also studied at SETECA and is currently pastoring a church in Guatemala City. Elizabeth has a passion for children and has started a club for kids on Saturdays with children from low income situations. Elizabeth plans to continue using her counseling and teaching abilities along with her husband in ministry!

 

Meet Loida:

Loida’s parents are SETECA alumni. Loida is from Guatemala but lived for several years in Spain where her parents are serving as missionaries. Loida is studying Bible in the masters program. She has a love for languages and feels God is leading her to do Bible translation!

As you can tell, together as Overflow, we were able to come together and bless college students at SETECA to make an impact all across the world! Thank you so much for you generosity and please join us in continuing to pray for these individuals and what God is doing in and through our ministry partner SETECA!

Treasure Island

Jump In With “Treasure Island”

Each Sunday kids in Treasure Island, PC3’s elementary ministry,  engage in a camp-like experience as they come in to worship, play crazy games, build relationships in small group and learn about God with their friends.

Their mission is to reach kids and come alongside families to help them walk with God and they believe that life change happens in the context of small groups. This is where you come in. As a college student you have the opportunity to pour into the kids alongside of your friends and make a huge impact with your time. They provide everything that you need to become a successful small group leader from the materials and all of the curriculum to the training and support as you develop as a leader.

Treasure Island would love to have YOU and your friends come and join this mission by volunteering to be a small group leader for the 9am, 11am or 5pm service. This is an easy way to make a huge impact in our church and in our city… so grab a friend and jump in to T.I.!

If you would like to learn more about volunteering in Treasure Island, please email sierra.barnes@portcitychurch.org!

SEND 20 – Overflow Giving Project

/0 Comments/in , /by

New Graphic.001

This semester we desire to make an impact in our world through our partnership with a seminary in Guatemala, called SETECA! You and I may never make it to the cities of Argentina, or the villages of Ecuador, or the towns of Nicaragua to share the love of Jesus… but there are people who God has called and who desire to do that very thing. Many of them desire to be trained and equipped for that task, but for some the ability to pay for that training is not even possible.

This semester we want to make that possible. We want to provide 20 scholarships for students to afford Seminary training in order to be equipped and sent out to impact the world! And all we have to do is give.

Individually, it would be difficult to SEND 20, but if every student at Overflow donated $20 ($5 for every Tuesday in February) we can reach our goal! Let’s come together and make a small sacrifice to make a huge impact in our world!

Give Here!

Overflow Spotlight- Kalee Stikeleather

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Everyone welcome Kalee Stikeleather to the #OVFspotlight!

Kalee is the newest addition the the Overflow staff! She will be joining Zack to focus on helping students get connected in and to our ministry. A lot of you recognize Kalee from leading worship at Overflow but haven’t had the chance to meet her.

So we asked Kalee a few questions to help you get to know her better!

Tell us a little about yourself.

“I grew up in a small and unique town called Monroe, NC and the most interesting thing to do on a weekend, while in high school, was going to Walmart or going muddin’ (a.k.a. four wheeling in the mud, hah!). I was raised in a family of four with incredible parents and an older brother named Josh. Our family grew when my brother married Bekah and they had the most adorable 1 year old named Teagan!

I started at CFCC and later graduated from UNCW with a degree in Marketing in 2013 and shortly after that attended a worship school called 10,000 Fathers for 18 months. Through worship school, I was led by the best teachers who challenged and encouraged me on my identity, my skills and my leading- truly one of the most fruitful seasons in my life.

While all that was happening, I met my husband, Parrish, through mutual friends at Overflow one night. Our story is actually a really funny, sweet, long story – you are welcomed to ask me anytime to hear about it, hah! Fast forward 3 years later, we got married in Wilmington and now have been married for almost 4 years. Whoop, whoop!”

How did you first get involved with PC3?

“Once I moved to Wilmington, I immediately got involved with PC3 by attending services and volunteering in different ministries. After I attended PC3 for a year, I had the honor of joining the worship team as a Worship Leader. It really is so sweet to see that since I’ve moved here I’ve been able to participate in every ministry in some way, through singing or volunteering, for a church that I love so much.

One thing about me is I love love love anything that involves music, leading or writing songs. It truly is a joy and an immense honor to lead worship in every event I’m a part of. I love worshiping with our Father, leaning in to hear His voice and proclaiming praises in the presence of Truth.”

Tell us about your experience with Overflow.

“I didn’t know what to expect when I first attended Overflow as a freshman in college, but I do remember when I left that night, I knew that I never wanted to miss another service after that. From the first interactions with students who made me feel welcomed, to the songs that awakened me to sing, to the awareness of His presence filling the room and to the astounding lessons learned from the Word, I knew that this was what my heart needed- a constant, unwavering rhythm to be solely dependent on His name alone. I didn’t have everything figured out, and I still don’t 100%, but I knew that taking that small step to walk into that huge building was the biggest “yes” that I’ll never regret and forever grateful where God has taken me since January 2010.”

 What is your favorite thing about Overflow?

“As a student, other than the actual service of wonderful music and the message, I really appreciated the friendships that were made ever since the first couple of weeks that I attended Overflow. These are some of my best friends that walked alongside with me through college, while I was dating, a part of my bridal party, and constantly encouraging me in my journey today.”

What are you looking forward to most, being on staff with Overflow?

“In this new position, I have to say that I am most excited to see how God will stir student’s hearts in finding ways to get connected-whether through missions, small groups, volunteering, etc. It’s so cool to see that when God calls us to step into something that is uncomfortable, we experience more of Him because we are reliant on Him to do what we can’t do on our own. I know that it is going to be such an honor to witness that transformation as students take that step to connect!”

Speed Round!

  • What are you currently listening to? –“Psalm 23” by Shane & Shane on PsalmsLive Album, “Beautiful” by Mosaic MSC, and “Have it All” by Bethel
  • What are you currently reading? -“Finding I Am” by Lysa Terkeurst
  • Favorite Podcast? –10,000 Fathers Podcast
  • Favorite TV Show? –Friends
  • Favorite Coffee Drink? –Almond Latte

Thank you Kalee for all that you have done for Overflow and all that you are going to continue to do!

A New Year & A Fresh Hope

/0 Comments/in /by

Check out a special message from our Overflow Pastor, Clay Everett below:

“I love the start of a new year. For me it’s a chance to take a breath, to access where I’ve come from, and look forward to where I’m going. The beginning of 2017 has been no different. As I looked back over last year there are so many things I was grateful for, but also things I hope to do differently or get better at this year…and with those things in mind 2017 is full of hope!

What’s cool is that we have the same opportunity for a fresh hope at Overflow! God was good to us last year, but I believe He has more in store! As I look ahead to this year, and this Spring Semester, here is my hope for Overflow…

My hope for Overflow is that we would be a people who seek after God. That we would be a people who seek to know God better, to trust Him more fully, and to love Him more deeply. I believe this can be true for each of us, whether you feel near to God or far from God. Whether your life is great or if your pain feels unbearable…. God invites each of us to seek Him and He makes this promise:

“If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.” – Jeremiah 29:13

The Bible tells us that seeking God brings understanding, blessing, refreshing, gladness, reviving, and reward… and these results are not in addition to God, but God Himself. When we seek God, we find that God is the only One able to satisfy every longing of our hearts!

So as we start this new year let’s together make a choice to seek God. Let’s run after God and seek Him as our hope, our righteousness, our source, our life, our refuge and reward! If we do… I believe that we will come to the end of this semester and that we would be able to see some really amazing things that God has done in us and through us!

That is my hope.”
