Our youth ministry is successful because of caring and dedicated adult volunteers.
There are SO many ways to get involved. Volunteers in all programs gather four times a school year for training and fellowship and receive ongoing support from the Director of Youth Ministries. Any adults who are expected to facilitate discussions are provided all needed materials well in advance of the day they are needed. No volunteers are expected to be expert theologians – they just need to enjoy the presence teenagers and have a desire to share Christ’s love with them.
All adults are required to be Safe Gatherings Certified, which can be completed from home and is completely online. If you are interested in volunteering, or if you have questions, contact Kasey at [email protected].
