Volunteer Opportunities

Please contact Kristi St. Laurent at the church (432-2150) or email Kristi@windhamchurch.org.

This service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of God's children but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God. 2 Corinthians 9:12 (‘children’ inserted for ‘people’)

Kids’ Worship leader	Welcome kids, emcee for 2-3 worship songs (video-based), offer short prayer to send kids off to Sunday School.  This is 15 minutes long, starting 10 minutes before service.	Solo or duo, give it a whirl! If it is a good fit, pick a schedule (month, once a month, every-other-week).
Teacher	Lead teachers for each workshop.  The same lesson plan is taught, with age-modifications, to a different class each week. Specifically we need BDZ (computer and game room) teacher for first service; Thou Art! Studio and Desert Drama teachers for second service.	Each set of lessons is a “rotation” because the kids “rotate” through the workshops. Workshops are typically 4, but sometimes 3, weeks. First service teachers teach each of the 3 or 4 weeks. Second service teachers lead for two weeks.
Shepherd	Consistent person/duo to bond with and model Christian life for one group of children. The classes are divided by grade. Our biggest need is for 1^st grade, first service.	Sign up for half or full year. This is a good role for couples or “duos” so that if one can’t make it, a familiar face is still available to the students on Sunday morning.
Substitute/co-teacher	Fill in for lead teacher on scheduled Sundays away and/or co-teach lesson or classes (ie:  kindergarten) that could use an extra leader. Or, volunteer to be available as substitute if a teacher is unexpectedly unable to teach.	As needed. If you are interested in pairing with one of our consistent full-time teachers (Thou Art! and Marketplace first service, BDZ and Marketplace second service) or a consistent part-time teacher (Drama first service, every-other-week) you could provide reliable backup to a specific workshop or teacher.
Special Sunday Coordinator	Plan, staff and implement Sunday morning program for holiday and special services. These may be holidays (like Christmas) or odd Sundays between holidays (ie: between Christmas and New Year’s Day). It also includes the Children’s and Youth Sunday in June. Assistance provided by CE Director and CE Ministry Team.	3 – 4 Sundays per school year
Sunday School Superintendent	Point-person for teachers and shepherds to turn to with issues on Sunday Morning. Collect attendance envelopes. Answer Sunday School questions of visitors who bring children, assist with registration if needed.	Second Service
Road Crew	OK, we don’t travel. However, each Sunday requires setup of tables and chairs. Most importantly, the movable partition in the Senior/Jr High room needs to be closed before Sunday morning and opened after first service. It is notoriously temperamental and needs someone willing to learn it’s idiosyncrasies.	Set up (close) “The Wall” Friday evening or Saturday. Open “The Wall” after first service each Sunday.
