School's out! And summer's on!
If you, like many, need creative recruiting ideas, check out this article in our Children's Ministry Magazine archives: "Does God Go on Summer Vacation at Your Church?"
Here's what one children's minister said in response to the article: "At our church we have a group of teachers and actually rotate teaching every third or fourth Sunday. It works really well, everyone gets vacation time and can switch with each other when necessary. We use lots of sources, one being Live Big, Live your belief in God, It's been very rewarding for children and teachers; our teachers come from almost all the sources mentioned in your article. Darlene Pierson, Community Church at Ocean Pines, Berlin, MD"
We invite people to be a part of "Summer Serve" - Serving 3 times in the summer - once in June, July and August. It's an easy, short commitment. Because of the great experience the summer serve volunteers have, many decide to stay on the team throughout the school year!
