KIDS MINISTRY

Awesome Volunteers Needed!

Have you heard the saying, “It takes a village to raise a child?” Well, it’s true! Data tells us that kids who are more likely to stay active in their faith into adulthood had at least 1 intentional adult outside of mom and dad who invested in them. Our Kids Team wants to invite YOU to join us in being the village for the amazing kids here at Hoffmantown.

We have need for front desk greeters, Elementary Sunday School teachers and one Tuesday Morning Child Care Volunteer. We provide the training, you provide the smile!

Interested? Contact Caitlin Craft at caitlinC@hoffmantown.org.
