Vacation Bible School (June 12-16) Volunteers

Help make VBS an engaging experience for the kids! We need help with music, crafts, story time, and more. Sign-up here and Deb Layton will be in touch with you soon.

Sunday School Volunteers: Exploring the Bible

Our children’s Sunday school is growing! We offer Children’s Sunday School during the 9:00 a.m. service and a Children’s Church as Story Time during the 11:00 a.m. service. If you love children, you can volunteer and share the love of Christ. Below are some of our needs for Children’s Sunday school:

  • Substitutes for childcare during the 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. worship service
  • Sunday School volunteer assistants and substitutes during the 9:00 a.m. worship service
  • Adult and student leaders for Children’s Church during the 11:00 a.m. worship service
  • Story Time at 11:00 a.m. (for kids aged three and potty-trained through the first grade)

Curriculum and materials will be provided. All teachers and assistants for the age of 18 must complete a background check. Please contact Deb Layton at sonsflower1@gmail.com for more information or to volunteer.

Children’s Ministry Team: Planting Seeds of Faith

If you want to see God working through our kids, you are invited to join our Children’s Ministry Team. We will meet 3 to 4 times per year with discussions around various areas of Christian education. Team members will discuss the growing needs of the children in our church, programming, Story Time, Children’s Church, volunteers, etc. Let’s work together to build a dynamic children’s ministry that will continue to grow and meet the needs of our congregation. If interested in participating, please reach out to Deb Layton at sonsflower1@gmail.com.

Lawn Mowing at Sunbury UMC

Enjoy the outdoors and help care for the grounds at church. We need volunteers to help with mowing during spring and summer. You’ll use the church’s zero turn mower and can help out as little or as often as your schedule will allow. We’ll appreciate having a few people willing to pitch-in. Let us know you’re able and we’ll be in touch later to learn more about availability.
