Good Shepherd Volunteer Form

Form for adults who wish to work with children or youth at Hope Presbyterian Church

Step 1 of 8

Children's and Youth Ministry Application
Note: This form is to be completed by all applicants (volunteer and employee) for any position involving supervision or custody of minors. This application is used by HOPE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH to help promote a safe environment for the children and youth who participate in our programs or use our facilities. Any applicant who has ever been convicted of child sexual abuse, physical abuse, or domestic violence should not volunteer service in any church sponsored activity or program for children or youth. Applicants with criminal records of other types will be evaluated at the discretion of church leaders. Any applicant who is a survivor of childhood sexual or physical abuse needs the love and acceptance of the HOPE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH family. Applicants who have such a history should discuss their desire to work with youth with the Associate Pastor or Senior Pastor prior to any participation as a youth worker. All applicants must study and agree to obey the guidelines that are provided for their program and position within the church's children's and youth ministry.
