Volunteer
“Volunteer” seems like such a simple word. But Rainforest Falls is more than signing your name on a list — it’s the return of Vacation Bible School and the launch of Children’s Chapel at Community UMC.
For many of us, this is something we’ve prayed about for a long time: bringing vibrant children’s ministry back to life in our church.
Now it’s our turn to come together as a community to make it happen — sharing God’s love through games, crafts, songs, lessons, laughter… and yes, probably a little bit of chaos.
So we ask you to pray about it. And if you feel moved, volunteer.
There is a place for everyone.
Not sure you can keep up with the kids? That’s okay — we have roles for all energy levels.
Many hands make lighter work, and every role matters. Whether you greet families with a smile or wave goodbye reminding each child how important they are, you help make this week possible.

Safer Sanctuaries Training Required for Children's Ministry Volunteers
Everyone who serves with our children's ministries—including Vacation Bible School (VBS), Trailblazer Kids (our Children's Chapel program)—is required to complete our updated Safer Sanctuaries training.
Even if you completed the training last year, the revised training must be completed again.
-
Volunteers under 18 years old: A background check is not required.
-
Volunteers 18 and older: A current background check is required. If you're unsure whether yours is still valid, please contact the church office.
The Safer Sanctuaries training is available online using the link below. After watching the training, you will need to complete the accompanying acknowledgment form. Please pick up a copy of the Safer Sanctuaries Policy and the required form from the church office (or the next time you're at church). The completed form will be kept on file in the church office.
Once you have completed the training, please let Office Chriss know so we can update our records.
Thank you for helping us provide a safe, welcoming, and caring environment for all of our children!
