Volunteering in children's ministry is an opportunity to be blessed in an unexpected way. Yes, wiping noses, changing diapers and cleaning up messes come with the territory. But the blessings far outweigh these things! We promise that if you engage in the lives of the children at this church, it will be time well-spent.
