Ignite Junior High Youth Group

Ministry Description:

Ignite is a Junior High Youth ministry for youth in 6th – 8th grade. Ignite is passionate about helping youth to develop their own personal relationship with Christ along with building healthy relationships with their peers. We know that junior high is a challenging time for the youth and full of difficult transitions. We hope that Ignite can be an encouragement to the youth and help to shine the light of Christ into their lives.

Ignite meets on Friday evenings from 7 – 9 PM. This time consists of playing games, having snack and engaging in a short lesson. Youth are encouraged to invite friends and come prepared to have some fun! Fridays are a great time for youth to get to know each other better and develop closer friendships. We know that life is a lot better when you have other Christian friends to support and help you along the way.

Ignite also meetings every Sunday morning for lessons during both services.

How YOU can help/Role of Volunteers (what you would be doing):

Ignite can use some more help on Friday evenings. This would involve supervising the youth and more importantly interacting with them through various games and activities.
Ignite could also use more coaches or assistant coaches for Sunday morning lessons. Coaches would be responsible to teach an hour lesson based on the current curriculum. Assistant coaches would just need to be present during the lesson and help the coach to teach where needed.

We are looking for volunteers that have a genuine love for the youth and have lots of patience!

Soup and Salad

Ministry Description:

Soup and Salad was started to promote fellowship among all members by providing lunch immediately after the second service for anyone who wishes to stay and eat. It is typically held the third Sunday of each month from late winter until early spring. Donations are taken in a box by the ramp and are used to fill various needs throughout the church. Some examples include helping fund the deacons, -who in turn care for the members of the church including our widows and widowers-, to bridging the financial gap to send a team on a mission trip to Honduras.

How YOU can help/Role of Volunteers (what you would be doing):

As a volunteer you would help set tables and chairs in the fellowship hall, prepare the meal, and clean up after lunch is over. The dinner is self serve and desserts are usually donated by various and different members.
