What are the requirements to volunteer in children's ministry?
This is a common question we receive. Requirements vary slightly from church to church but generally include:
- Application and Interview: We require all volunteers to complete an application and participate in an interview process. This ensures we find the best fit for our team and the children we serve.
- Background Check: For the safety and well-being of our children, a background check is usually required. This is a standard practice in most churches.
- Training: We offer comprehensive training sessions to equip volunteers with the skills and knowledge they need to effectively serve.
- Commitment: We appreciate a consistent commitment, but we understand that life happens. We work with volunteers to find a level of commitment that is sustainable for them.
How much time is required to volunteer?
The time commitment is flexible and depends on the role and the volunteer's availability. Some roles might require a few hours a week, while others may involve a greater time commitment. We work closely with each volunteer to find a schedule that fits their individual circumstances. Even a few hours a month can make a significant difference!
