Parent Cooperative Information

Our program is a parent cooperative and parents are expected to participate.  More information about the cooperative and exceptions to the volunteer requirement is her e. If you are member of the Children's Ministry Team, Youth Ministry Team or are a teacher in the program or OWL teacher or Youth Advisor you do not need to sign up for additional volunteer duties. Thank you for all you are doing!  We do not ask parents who are newcomers to the church to participate in the cooperative.  For at least six months we encourage parents to go to service regularly and enter the life of the church before making a volunteer commitment.
