Children's Formation Team

About

The Children's Formation team primarily serves our children on Sunday mornings in Littles Formation and Children's Church. This team is primarily made up of parents of our children and we ask that parents' first priority in serving at CCA be in their child's class once a month. But the Children’s Formation team is not exclusive to parents and we encourage the entire church body to join.

Ways to Serve

  • Lead Teachers (Little Ones: Preschool, Children’s Church: K-3, 4/5/6 Catechism) are comfortable leading in front of our classes. Some time commitment is needed to read through the lesson, consider the flow of the class time, and become familiar with the day's worship music, memory verse, or Catechism. The Little One’s class or Children's Church will have a scripted Bible story followed by 'wondering questions' and sometimes a very short teaching time. No memorization is needed as the lesson is all scripted. The 4/5/6 class will have a more formal lesson time followed by discussion. All materials are prepared ahead of time. The teaching rotation is once a month. The 4/5/6 class meets on the last Sunday of the month. Summer is usually an off period. Set up and clean up of the class room is needed.
  • Assistant Teachers (all classes) will assist with telling the scripted Bible story, walking children from the service or to the bathroom, keeping children engaged with the story, and various other tasks as needed. Assistants should also be familiar with the lesson for the day. Help with the set-up and clean-up of the classroom. 
  • Junior Helpers are students 11+ years old who would like to assist once a month in the Little One’s classroom. They often play with a child who needs more attention, help tidy the classroom, and assist in ways that are helpful to the teacher and assistant.
