Amanda Lindamood joined Resurrection's staff in 2018 as the Youth Director focusing on older youth. In high school and college Amanda received opportunities to be mentored by dynamic pastors, and later held demanding leadership jobs throughout the broader church community, forming a rich faith life and a love of using creativity in service to the church. She has an expertise in program direction, curriculum design, volunteer coordination, crisis response, child and youth development and experiential learning, using a diverse set of skills to apply advocacy broadly and cross disciplinarily. She has over 12 years’ experience putting her faith to work in schools, nonprofits, youth advocacy organizations, libraries, violence prevention and response services, always under the auspice of strategic thinking, relationship building and meaningful learning. She brings a commitment to intergenerational ministry, embodied discipleship, and active participation in justice work, supporting families and youth in holistic faith formation.

The Education Committee is a volunteer body that works in partnership with the Children and Youth Director’s to make decisions about programming, curriculum, and congregational trends in participation and community engagement. Through the lens of Children and Youth Ministry, we look to contribute to the health of families, the support of young people, and meaningful connections to one’s faith. This committee is chaired by our Youth Director, Amanda Lindamood, and meets in person once a month.
