Frequently Asked Questions
How Old Do You Have to Be to Volunteer?
Children can begin volunteering in 4th grade, if a parent or guardian is also volunteering at the same time (does not need to be in the same area). Children younger than this may volunteer alongside their parents on our greeting team, at the discretion of our Guest Services Coordinator. We strongly encourage any kids or students who wish to volunteer to also attend a worship service with their own age group.
Where Can Kids or Students Volunteer?
Kids/students ages 4th grade through 8th grade are welcome to volunteer when a parent is also volunteering (does not have to be in the same area). Kids in 4th grade and up may volunteer in our Preschool rooms. Students in 6th grade and up may volunteer with K-3rd graders. Students in 7th grade and up may volunteer in our Toddler rooms, in HUGS (Special Needs) and in Guest Services.
Students in high school and up may volunteer in 4th/5th grade, in middle school and in Weekend Service. Students age 18 and up may volunteer in our Infant rooms as well as all other areas.
Will I need a background check to volunteer?
Do you have volunteer opportunities during the week?
Yes! We often have a need for office help during the week, from copying, to data entry or other tasks. We also have occasional need for light construction and painting help. Our White Glove Team cleans our LPKids areas during the week. You can explore the positions below to see which ones can be done during the week.
How can I discover my spiritual gifts?
If you’d like to explore the unique ways that God has shaped you, you can take this Spiritual Gifts Inventory.
