Church Life / Children's Ministries

Getting Involved

Middle Schoolers, High Schoolers and adults can serve in Children's Ministry. Service in this area is reserved for covenant members, or those currently pursuing membership. Any person serving must first complete a national background check and be interviewed by a member of our staff. For consistency of care, we ask volunteers to commit to one of two ministry seasons: September-May (school year), or June-August (summer). Here are some of the areas where you can serve:

Nursery

Must be at least high school age. Caring for and praying for babies in the infant nursery, some teaching for toddler nursery.

PreSchool and Elementary Sunday School

There are three roles volunteers can fill for elementary sunday school:

  1. Lead teacher - serves as the primary instructor to the children and also provides mentoring to the helpers under his/her care. We have two teachers per classroom, so that volunteers can share teaching duties.
  2. Small Group Leader - assists the lead teacher in teaching and nurturing the children and leads a small group of children each week in prayer and application of the lesson.
  3. Worship Leader - leads children in singing, scripture memory, and hearing a mission story.
We also need substitutes who can be called upon to fill in throughout the year.
 

Midtown Campus 

We have officially launched a satellite campus of Four Oaks in the Midtown area. Due to our new campus we are constantly in need of Children's Ministries' Volunteers to serve in various roles. Please email Pastor Scott if you are interested in serving in Children's Ministries at the Midtown Campus.
