Fayetteville First UMC Children/Youth Volunteer Application

Fayetteville First UMC Children/Youth Volunteer Application

We are excited you are interested in volunteering with the children and/or youth of our church. For your protection and to protect the children/youth entrusted to our care the church requires that both volunteers and paid employees complete a screening process. A volunteer application and the child abuse prevention policy acknowledgement form must be completed and kept on file at the church. This process is a portion of the Safe Sanctuary Policy that has been implemented to protect the children and the workers. A background check will be conducted by the church. Be sure to copy and paste this link in your browser: https://www.fayettevillefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/resources-forms_16_3543369955.doc to access the Background Check Authorization form. Fill it out and return a signed printed copy to the church office. Also you will need to read the Safe Sanctuaries Policy found at https://www.fayettevillefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/safesanctuariesupdated2-26-21.pdf.
