Why You Need Background Checks for VBS
|
|
|
|
Before you
resort to thinking that VBS background checks are excessive and nothing
could possibly happen if someone joyfully and willingly volunteers,
think twice. It might be true that you know the person volunteering,
but do you know their history or even their capabilities? This is an
unfortunate reality of our world, and it’s always better to prioritize
the safety of children in your church.
The last
thing you want to deal with at your VBS is a security issue, especially
involving a child. VBS is an opportunity for your church to share the
Gospel with children, and you want to work hard to avoid anything that
could distract from that. Here are a few reasons why your church needs
VBS background checks, who you should perform the background checks on,
and how to take additional security measures to make sure that your VBS
is nothing but fun and Gospel-focused.

Keeping In Touch Over the Summer Break
|
|
|
|
While people
are excited about getting back to church and taking part in church
events, they’re also looking forward to catching up on much needed
vacations and getting away for a while. To help stay in touch and keep
your people posted on the latest and greatest around your church, you
can easily set up mass text communications through your ChMS so they
don’t miss a beat. Our team has put together some tips and tricks on
how to use texting to reach your people, along with popular examples of
messages you can use.
