frkls- I really appreciate the work your doing, and I'm sure the parents do also. I'm very involved in the Children's Dept. in my church, we don't/never had - a paid position for it, its just me and one other lady that do most of it with assorted help along the way. We both have grandkids now, but just never stopped doing it. Mainly for 2 reasons, we love doing it, and nobody else will do it, lol. If you don't have stuff going on with the kids/youth then they won't come, you have to make it interesting and fun!
You're pretty awesome. And that was really sweet of them to offer up some money. I hope the book store job goes well and they get the youth group stuff sorted out very soon.

Did Sr. Pastor ever meet with you? And what is her reasoning for denying the position? And how does she intend to retain parishoners if she pisses them all off?
You are a good person, Frkls, but tread carefully here. These folks will bleed you dry and then some, and when you cry "enough" will make you feel guilty because "OMG the Church!" Do not give more of yourself than you reasonably can.
