As a Christian community of faith and a United Methodist congregation, we pledge to conduct the ministry of the Gospel in ways that provide safety and spiritual growth for all our children and youth as well as for all the people who work with children and youth.

​

We provide annual training and screening for all of our volunteers and employees who have any contact with minors during any youth related activities.   We are called to live out the gospel of Jesus Christ and His instructions in protecting our most vulnerable. We are committed to providing a safe haven for our youth and will do all that we can to reduce risk and prevent abuse by following a thorough and practical policy.

​

We require all volunteers/employees who will have contact with minors during youth related activities to view our Safe Sanctuary Policy Training video below.  After completion please sign the form below so that we can proceed with next steps for background screening and Declaration of Faith commitment.
