11. How do I qualify to be a GKidz volunteer?
    All GKidz volunteers must play an active part in a cell community. If you wish to serve at GKidz, we would prefer that you have completed a minimum of LifeClass 3. There is a minimum age requirement: 16 years old for GKidz Small Group Leader at various clubs.

    Upon registering your interest with us to be a volunteer, you will need to participate in an introductory interview with a GKidz Pastor. A simple background check will also be conducted so we are confident that you will be able to help us create a safe, fun, and great environment for our children to learn more about God. Keep in mind that all new volunteers will be required to pass an observation period as well.

12. If I am passionate about design, can I volunteer my time and skills with GKidz? 
    Yes! GKidz is looking for passionate and creative individuals to volunteer as graphic designers. You will help design and brand our event collaterals. You will also get to be part of our publicity team for marquee GKidz events annually, and will contribute design and branding ideas for our various lesson series and curriculum. 

    If you wish to serve in this area, you will need to be actively involved in a cell group and have completed a minimum of LifeClass 3. Professional or school-based training in graphic design is highly preferred, but not necessary. You should also have an existing portfolio of work to help us find the best fit for you in GKidz.

13. Are there other roles that I can volunteer to serve as in GKidz?
    We also need volunteers to serve in our registration/logistics team at GKidz. Volunteers are also needed to serve our special needs children. These roles have a different schedule and time commitment.
