CRAVE Student Ministry Volunteer Leadership Covenant You then, my son [and daughters], be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men [and women] who will also be qualified to teach others. 2 Timothy 2: 1-2 After observing the student ministry programs and reading the commitment involved with being on this team, I have spent time in prayer and discussed with my family the commitment involved as a volunteer leader. Understanding the responsibility of my position, I do recognize and willing commit to the following: I acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus Christ in my life and have a personal relationship with him. I am committed toward growing and maturing my relationship with God through personal study and prayer, active attendance at church, and involvement in accountable relationships. I am committed to choices and a lifestyle that are both Godly and above reproach, knowing that both serve as examples for students. I am making the commitment to the student ministry for the full school year. I will make a committed attempt to help find at least one other adult volunteer for our continual need of leaders in the student ministry. I understand the biblical purposes of the church as well as the strategy of the CRAVE Student Ministry. I understand that if I miss five or more of my designated volunteer area with no communication to my co- teachers and director, I will be asked to reevaluate my role in the student ministry. I, have read and do agree with the individual goals and expectations for my involvement during the student ministry for 2010-2011 (August July). I realize that the purpose of this year is to develop and deepen the faith of the students under my care, and I will respond by treating this time as valuable and with commitment. I will consistently attend and apply myself this year, as I understand fully the importance of being a Godly influencer, teacher, and example. I am committed to grow in my relationship with Jesus in order that I might help lead others to deepen their faith in Christ. Signed: Date:
