The Child/Youth Protection Policy at Keller UMC, Safe Sanctuary, has been in place for ten years!
As a community of faith, Keller UMC needs as many Safe Sanctuary trained volunteers as possible to fulfill our mission. We simply cannot host nearly 500 children at Vacation Bible School or co-host Holiday House with Community Storehouse (new this year!) without dozens of volunteers who are willing to go through this process to help assure the safety of child and youth participants.
We encourage you to make plans to attend our next Safe Sanctuary training
Sunday, September 25, at
9:30 or 11am in the
Family Life Center/Gym.
Questions? Please contact
