DETAILS OF QUALIFICATION:
Assistant Website Manager,
Health Ministries Department of the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Job Description
(This is a VOLUNTEER position)
Qualifications: Be a baptized member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
- Be a member in good and regular standing in a church of the Northeastern Conference.
- Have a passion for Health Ministries, evangelism, and spreading the gospel.
- Have a basic understanding of how to use a computer and navigate the Internet.
- Have a general understanding of website formatting: uploading pictures, videos, and documents; using word processing software; positioning text and graphics on a computer screen/webpage; and doing similar website formatting-based tasks. If you do not have this ability (a general understanding of website formatting) but you have ability number 4 (a basic understanding of how to use a computer and navigate the Internet) and are willing to learn how to do website work, you may qualify.
- Be able to work with other individuals to obtain content and technological assistance for website development. As an assistant, you will work with the main Website Manager to make sure that data is transferred to the website in a timely and consistent manner. This includes video footage from events, pictures, testimonials, health information, announcements, and similar content. Either initially or over time, you may be asked to help the main Website Manager to acquire the content instead of just to put the content that she acquired on the website. Content is usually acquired from members of the Health Team or other selected contacts or health professionals. Thus, as Assistant Manager, you will not produce most of the content, but acquire it and make sure that it is published online immediately.
- Be willing to dedicate the time to run the website. The total time dedicated is widely negotiable and partially based on your schedule. Fortunately, as long as you can access the Internet, this task can be done anytime and anywhere. Overall, you are expected to be a part of Health Ministries and what we do. This includes attending the major Health Ministries Committee meetings, which occur 2-4 times a year at the Conference Office in Queens, NY (always on a Sunday).
- Note: prior experience in website design is NOT required. Individuals who can use facebook, e-mails, and cell phones should be able to run a website!!! Especially if you are familiar with the applications: facebook, twitter, myspace, or youtube, you should have a general understanding of the qualifications listed in #4-5.
If God is impressing your heart that this may be for you or if you know someone who may qualify, please contact:

Website Public Relations Specialist,
Health Ministries Department of the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Job Description
(This is a VOLUNTEER position)
Qualifications:
Be a baptized member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
- Be a member in good and regular standing in a church of the Northeastern Conference.
- Have a passion for Health Ministries, evangelism, and spreading the gospel.
- Have a basic understanding of how to use a computer and navigate the Internet.
- Be able to acquire content from the Health Ministries events occurring in the Conference to be broadcast on the website. Content includes pictures, videos, articles, announcements, and general information. Almost all of your time will not actually be spent on designing or being on the website. It will be spent on getting the content for the website. Therefore, this is mostly a field job, where you will go out or network with the Health Team to find content. Your job is to let everyone who visits the website know what we are doing. Health Ministries has weekly and sometimes daily events. You should address questions like: Who had that health fair? What did Health Ministries do at Camp Meeting? Who is going to record that video of the youth choir singing the Health Song? Can I get someone to look into the camera and tell me what they enjoyed about this cooking class at Ephesus (or wherever)? Thus, being a kind of reporter/interviewer/on-the-scene person is important.
- Be able to delegate your work with other people. This includes, for instance, finding reliable camera men so that you don’t have to personally be at every event but still have pictures or videos. It can include knowing many of the Health Leaders and workers in our churches so that when they are having an event you can find someone to give an account of what happened. Maybe getting some of the young people involved who are looking to be active in events at their church can be done, getting testimonials of what people liked about a health event, and working with our youtube and facebook managers. If you feel that you are a content-getter/reporter only or if you feel that you are a delegator only, you may still be eligible, as these may be split into two separate positions: PR-reporter (description in #5) and PR-manager (description here in #6).
- Be willing to dedicate the time to do the job and be willing to work with the General Website Manager. As a website PR, you will work with the General Manager. The total time dedicated is negotiable and partially based on your schedule. It can start with as little as a few minutes a week. You are expected to attend as many health events as is reasonable for your schedule. At a minimum, this includes the major Health Ministries Committee meetings that occur 2-4 times a year at the Conference Office in Queens, NY (always on a Sunday). It also includes listening in to the once-a-month conference calls. Conference calls are a good place to hear what events are happening in the Conference.
- It is helpful if you live, work, or attend church in one of the 5 boroughs of New York or in the immediate suburbs – Long Island/Westchester. However, you can be anywhere in the Conference. Note: prior experience in website public relations is NOT required.

Online Journalist and Content Specialist,
Health Ministries Department of the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Job Description
(This is a VOLUNTEER position)
Qualifications:
- Be a baptized member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
- Be a member in good and regular standing in a church of the Northeastern Conference.
- Have a passion for Health Ministries, evangelism, and spreading the gospel.
- Have a basic understanding of how to use a computer and navigate the Internet.
- Have good writing skills and good communication skills.
- Manage content for the website. You will basically specialize in providing fascinating, pertinent, relevant, and perhaps even humorous health-related information for the website. Most of this information will not be your own but will come from your own personal research or from networking with the many Health Leaders and workers in the Conference to generate health information. Potential examples of what you may do include: finding good health websites with reliable information, highlighting recent articles or good health-related books, interviewing health specialists, summarizing a health topic, doing a Health Tip of the Day (which may either be broadcast on the website or used as a daily e-mail from our website), having a Healthy Food of the Week that you describe and focus on, and so forth. Our Department has several connections and specialists in a variety of churches who can point you in the right direction of where to get content or can give you content. It is more important for you to find and manage the content that we have, than to produce it all on your own. However, creativity is useful and your freedom to express yourself and your work in the way you work best is emphasized.
- Be willing to dedicate the time to do the job and be willing to work with the General Website Manager and PR. The total time dedicated is negotiable and partially based on your schedule. It can start with as little as a few minutes a week.
- Note: prior experience is NOT required. If you are currently working in a field of health and can bring your expertise to the job, this is helpful. However, it is more important that you get to know the different health specialists in the Conference and work with them to get health information.
