Volunteer Opportunities

Our Children's ministry is looking for 15 youth that would be willing to help out this year with vacation Bible school. This is a great week and a huge opportunity to share God's love with others. If your student is interested please let Drew know by May 22. Students wanting to participate have to attend the mandatory VBS training. More details to follow on this training session.

We hope that if your student is a rising 7th or 8th grade student that they have already signed up to participate in basketball camp this year. Another great opportunity that our students have with basketball camp is the chance to help lead, encourage, and give back to campers younger than them.
We are looking for student volunteers that will help lead devotions, classroom activities, and basketball drills. Please note, your student does not have to have any past experience in basketball to be a volunteer. Every person has a gift that will bring value to camp. Being a camp student volunteer is a commitment. If your student is interested, please email Drew and fill out the student volunteer application. The application needs to be turned in to Drew no later than June 2nd. Middle school students can volunteer with the morning camp, which is rising 1st-4th grade and high school students can volunteer with either or both morning and afternoon camps. If you have any questions email Drew.
