Sunday Club Leaders Urgently Needed
Hi Everyone,
Hope you've all had a great summer. I'll shortly be looking at putting together the rota for Sunday Club for next term.
However, we are in desperate need of leaders. If your child attends Sunday Club, please consider if you'd be able spare a Sunday each month to lead the session. Or if you feel called to be involved with Children and Youth ministry within St Andrew's, we'd love to hear from you. Don't worry if you're short of time for preparing the sessions, we can work this out and make it as easy for the leader as possible.
If you would prefer to be a helper, that would also be very helpful.
However, we are currently low on leaders and without leaders we will be unable to put on regular Sunday Clubs.
We can then organise DBS checks and booking in a team training session before the new Sunday Club term begins (aiming for end of September ).
Any support and prayers would be very much appreciated.
Rachel x
(Sunday Club Co-Ordinator)
