Why Volunteer?

Serving as part of Community is a way to share the gifts we have been given. Volunteering is also one of the best ways to meet other people!

Below are many opportunities to serve at Community CRC. If you are interested in any of these positions, email the church office or the ministry address provided.

Volunteer Training & Record Checks

All volunteers are required to complete yearly mandatory online training in disability awareness, safe church policy, abuse prevention practices and emergency/fire safety.

Volunteers are required to have a Record Check every 5 years. The online form takes only a few minutes to complete and you can choose the location from which to pick up the completed Record Check. Once you have paid for the Record Check, submit the receipt to the Church Office for reimbursement.

If you have previously submitted a Record Check, the Church Office has record of that and will notify you when you need to complete another one. If you are unsure, please contact us.

The Abuse Prevention Policy, Fire Prevention Plan and other forms can be found in Forms and Policies.
