UR KIDS LEADERSHIP
We are so excited about having UR Kids for all kids age 6 weeks - 5th grade this fall and we need you! It takes 60 Leaders (15 per Sunday) to make the magic happen! Come spend ONE Sunday a month with UR Kids - an opportunity to laugh a little, connect with others, and learn all about Jesus from the youngest in our community! Email Hannah with questions.
we need you to do two important things:
-
Complete online application process that includes an application (with submission of references)
-
Complete a background check.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to complete this process. A member of the UR Kids staff will contact you after you submit your application. It should take 15 to 20 minutes from this point on.
room leaders
Room Leaders are those who would like to worship in a different way once a month by leading in UR Kids. Jump in and see the joy of spending time with the kids of our community! They will learn from you as you model what it is like to be a follower of Christ, but you will also learn from them as they share their wide eyed, child-like faith with you! Join a consistent team for one Sunday a month (or more if your schedule allows) by selecting 1st-4th Sunday Teams.
sub list
We are always looking for incredible leaders to serve in a substitute capacity. Or maybe the Sunday Team you are interested in volunteering on is currently full, but you would like to serve where you can, when you can in the meantime. If a Room Leader has to miss their rotation, they can reach out to you to see if you are able to fill in. Or if someone needs to step away from their position as a Room Leader all together, we'd love to plug in one of our leaders from the sub list who has already spent some time with our kids. Jump in and see the joy of spending time with the kids of our community!
