SNK Volunteer Email 5.01.26
Hello SNK Team!
Is anyone else beginning to feel that excitement in the air? VBS is almost here!! If you haven’t yet registered to serve, there are still many ways you can be a part of this joyous ministry. First, you can pray for the children, families, and volunteers that will be entering our campus each night. You can also register to serve at VBS here! Anyone still need to sign your own children up yet? Here you go! Click here to register your kids! (Psst! I just signed my own up while writing this blog!)
Please remember to always be praying for the children and families we serve and support each week.
Important Updates &Reminders:
Kayla Meyers has stepped away from the Elementary Director role. She will continue to be the person who schedules volunteers for elementary. This position will not be filled by anyone else.
Please remember to click “accept” or “decline” on your Planning Center invites!
If something comes up after you’ve signed up to serve and you’re no longer able to make it, please reach out to Kayla Meyers or Trudy Gunnet (preschool director). This includes unexpected situations like illness.
Having the right number of volunteers is very important for both the safety and care of our children, so we truly appreciate you letting Kayla or Trudy know as soon as you’re aware of a scheduling conflict. Thank you for understanding and helping us keep everything running smoothly!
