Volunteer for Children's Church
The
Children's Ministry Team is planning on expanding
the current Children's Church Program. Starting in
September there will be a separate class for two and
three year olds when the older children are having
children's church in the fellowship hall. Teachers
are needed to read a story, help children color a
picture, and interact with the children during play
time in a classroom downstairs for 30 to 40 minutes
during the Sunday worship service. Volunteers will
be part of a rotation requiring participation once
every two to three months depending on the number of
volunteers. If you are interested, please contact
Julie Watterson or Renae Bender. |
