Our Precious RE Volunteers


Many volunteers have commented on how much they have learned about our religion and values by volunteering with the children and youth during the year!

We need classroom volunteers that are male, female, elders, young adults (18+), parents and grand-parents...and everyone in between to offer a safe and diverse program.

Parents can’t do it all and we believe in a COMMUNITY of helping, caring adults.  This way the children/teens to have experiences with many perspectives!

 

We Appreciate YOU.

 

What is my commitment if I volunteer in the classroom?   
     • Two Sundays per month, at one service…one Sunday leading the activities provided by the DRE and RE Committee., and one Sunday, assisting a different lead volunteer.
     • Quarterly volunteer meetings, participating in RE services as needed.

What if I have never taught before?
     We offer a training/orientation on how to work with kids and youth, plus there are quarterly volunteer meetings to stay connected and get ideas.
     In addition, you will have direct support from the DRE and RE Committee on curriculum and classroom management. The lessons are easy to use, and many give presentation suggestions.

Other Options for Participating
     * Join short term task groups and help create fun for all ages. We need people to help put on our Halloween Party, holiday pageants and Easter activities! We will need future mentors for the Coming of Age (COA) program in 2012, as well as COA program planners. 
     * We are also seeking more childcare providers for our church list. Do you have a great adult provider? Do you know a teen age 16 and older who has been reliable?
