Children's Ministry: Volunteer
Want to volunteer?
- Requirements: A love for God, and a passion for children. (Degree in childhood education not required!)
- Opportunities for every schedule. We have many ways that you can minister to children in a time frame that will work for you!
- You will not be alone. You'll be supported by other volunteers and the Children's Ministry director. There are also trainings throughout the year designed to encourage, equip, energize, and empower your ministry!
- Now what? Contact the children's director, who will set up a classroom visit for you and will take you through the process of volunteering in children's ministry. You can also view the volunteer application, print it, fill it out, and bring it in when you meet with the children's director.
