AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU | HELP WITH KIDMINWe are currently looking to fill a few voids in our KidMin on Sunday mornings. Our desire is to have a rotation of individuals serving so that everyone can serve one Sunday a month in a specific area.We are currently looking for individuals to serve in the following ways:

One adult to serve in the two-year old room on the first Sunday of the month (November-May)
One adult to serve as the lead teacher of the preschool class on the third Sunday of the month (October-May)
One adult to serve as the lead teacher of the preschool class on the fourth Sunday of the month (January-March)
One adult to serve as the preschool support adult on the second Sunday of the month (October-May)
One adult to serve as the elementary support adult on the fourth Sunday of the month (September-May)

The next generation needs you, so would you consider praying about serving in one of these roles? We would love to have you join our wonderful team. Please contact Matt Hart, Stacey Miller, or Stephanie Vrshek with any questions you may have about these opportunities.
