Partnership in Ministry

God has called parents to be the greatest influence in the faith development of their children. Your involvement in LOC’s children and/or youth ministries contributes to its success and fulfills the promises you made at your child’s baptism! To be able to keep small groups small and give each child the attention they deserve we ask you to volunteer up to 3x/ school year (we are seeking 6 parents per week). If you are unable to volunteer you will help cover the cost for an additional teacher ($50/ school year per child). Please check off any ways you can help!

One or more ways I will volunteer this year...

Explorers (3 yr old - K) - Sundays Voyagers (1st - 3rd) Pathfinders (4th - 6th) Christmas Program Service Projects Become a Member of the Children & Family Ministry Team Slice (weekly pizza dinner)

Payment

We have a minimal fee of $100 per child for Pathfinders to help cover the cost of curriculum, supplies, snacks, etc. An additional $50 will be charged per child if you are unable to volunteer 3x in Pathfinder classes. Families can pay this online (link below) or drop off cash or check in the office. Make sure to designate your money to Pathfinders (with your child's name) so that we know how to allocate it correctly.
