Opportunities to Serve

Bethel's children and youth programs rely on the help of parents and others who enjoy spending time with kids as well as learning and growing with them.  The Bethel staff would love to have you join in creating the loving, safe, fun and faith-filled environment Bethel strives to offer. 

There are many areas that need to be staffed this year…traditional class leaders Downtown, rotation small group leaders, rotation station leaders, large group leaders and assistants, music assistants, special event leaders, confirmation guides, etc.  Some assignments require a few weeks of service, while others run for the whole Sunday School year.  Job descriptions are provided below.

 

Prayerfully consider the opportunities to share your gifts with us.  Then, please contact Lisa at Bethel Lutheran Church (715-386-8821) to let us know how you could help   Thank You!

 

Bethel Downtown: Traditional Sunday School (3 year old – 5th grade Sundays &

6th - 7th grades on Wednesdays) -

 

Classroom teachers for multi-aged groups (ex. Preschool, K-2nd, 3rd-5th)

Responsibilities include:

·        Preparing and teaching lessons from the chosen curriculum (the teachers handbook will give you good direction for doing this).

·        Caring for and being willing to learn with a small group of children.

·        Time commitment is weekly, September – May (team teaching encouraged, so you can teach some weeks and attend worship other weeks)

 

 Bethel Highlands:  Rotation Sunday School (1st – 5th grades)

 

Station Leaders

Responsibilities include:

·        Commit to teaching one rotation (typically 4 or 5 weeks long) in a station where you have some skill, talent or interest.  (Ex. Art, Drama, Computer, Music, Games, Food, Movie, etc.)

·        Teach the same lesson (modified for each age group, 1st - 5th grades) during each week of your rotation.  The lesson has already been developed for you.

·        Time commitment is by rotation, so you teach only for a 4 or 5 week time period.  You can chose how often you would like to teach a rotation.

 

Small Group Leaders

            Responsibilities include:

·        Assigned to one specific class to rotate with from station to station each week (You are not responsible for teaching the lesson J )

·        Build personal relationships with the children in your small group.  You are the person they will see and connect with each week, so it’s important that you like to hang out with kids.

·        Greet students as they arrive, chat with them about their week, take attendance, and do follow-up on students who have been missing for a period of time

·        Time commitment is weekly, September – May  (You may share this responsibility with another person, so you can attend worship some Sundays.)

Small Group Leaders

            Responsibilities include:

·        Build a personal relationship with a group of eight to ten children by welcoming them, sitting with them during the Large Group lesson and helping the children review and apply what they have learned.

·        The curriculum has well planned small group times and all materials will be prepared for you weekly.  Just a brief review of the day’s lesson will help you know what to do that day.

·       Time commitment is weekly, September – May  (You may share this responsibility with another person, so you can attend worship some Sundays.)

 

Drama/Music Team

            Responsibilities include:

·        Willingness to help lead music and/or perform skits for large group openings for both the PreK – Kindergarten and 1st-5th grades.  Your enthusiasm will make it awesome and it could be contagious J

·        Time commitment is a weekly rehearsal and most Sunday mornings.  (Every person may not be needed every week.)

 

Other miscellaneous positions with varying time commitments are available as well.  These include production people (running media equipment), skit/prop creators, administrative help during the week, and people to help with events (Christmas program, faith milestones, etc.)
