WORKING WITH CHILDREN!
· Children’s ministry check-in —Help families with a smooth transition when dropping off their children in our children’s program. Check-in / Check-out workers help families feel comfortable, welcome and safe dropping off thier children. Volunteers would help out once or twice a month - before and after the gathering. (1 ½ - 3 hours a month)

WORKING WITH TEENS!
· Roots Student Ministries —Work with Pastor Jessica in training and teaching teens God’s love, truth and grace. Through music, drama, games, and events these teens learn more who they are and who God is. Volunteer on Wednesday nights 7 - 8:30 PM.
SERVING THE COMMUNITY & UNCHURCHED!
· Third Friday —Third Friday events are one of the major ways we connect with the unchurched in our community. We aren’t there to preach or stand on a soap box. We are there to love people, serve people and provide family friendly activities. You will get to have fun & meet hundreds of unchurched people. You can work with Pastor Jeremy and be a part of this frontline team. (3 hours a month)
· Week In Wyandotte —This is a week-long celebration of serving the community and training students to live a life of service. Cleaning parks, bathrooms, children’s events in the parks, meals on wheels, and a big grand finale - we serve all week long. Be a team leader in any of these areas as we host teens from all over the east coast & Midwest. There are plenty of behind the scenes and planning opportunities.
SUNDAY MORNING MINISTRIES!
· Sparkle Team —Excellence is one of our core values. We believe the church (which represents God) should do their best in every area. The Sparkle team may work behind the scenes but they are important to helping guests feel at home. Volunteer 1-3 times a month helping clean after gatherings and keeping the Box sparkling.
· Pavement Posse —Isn’t it great being greeted in the parking lot as you come to church. This group is the first contact with people as they arrive. Helping guests feel welcome and at ease is our goal. Volunteer once or twice a month to serve in this area.
· Greeters —Smiling faces at the front door as your arrive always seems to brighten the day. Greeters help welcome guests and pass out our weekly communicator to keep people up to date with info. Volunteer once or twice a month to serve in this area.
· Ushers —Gatherings don’t run smoothly by chance. Ushers are key in helping many behind the scenes aspects of WFC run smooth - troubleshooting, preparing communion, distribution of things after the gathering and much more. Volunteer once or twice a month to serve in this area.
· Sound/Tech/Media —We love worship & media! We like to be creative in communicating the love and truth of Jesus. Whether it’s drama, song, video, lighting you can be a part. Volunteer once or twice a month to serve in this area.
· Worship Team —Leading others into the presence of God every week so they leave different then they walked in is our goal. If you can play an instrument or sing, we are developing our worship team!
ADMINISTRATION!
