Nursery Ministry
Volunteers

 We are still in need of a few more volunteers for our Nursery to function properly even in 5 Sunday months. Also, we have one volunteer in the Nursery during Sunday School time who needs a second person to help her. This is a great ministry to help out our young mother's and help their little ones. 
*If you are interested, please contact Becca to fill out paperwork for a background check and she will let MaryAnn know when you are cleared to be put on the Nursery Schedule.

Background Checks

If you would like to volunteer for any program or Event that involves working with anyone younger than 18 years old at SLBC, a Background Check Authorization must be completed and turned in to Becca in the office. Once you're verified with a clean background you will be contacted and can be scheduled in your chosen volunteer position.   
You must be reverified every 3 years to stay current.
