How Can We Serve You
Answers to Your Questions
How does someone volunteer for children’s ministry?
Each Kid City volunteer is a faithful member of Lancaster Baptist Church, who has made a commitment to distinctive Christian living; and has been observed, interviewed by the children’s pastor and screened prior to being placed in a classroom or nursery. Volunteers receive regular training and evaluations.
Will my kids be safe and secure?
A few policies and procedures that will give you comfort are:
1) No preschooler is released to an individual who does not have a matching security card.
2) There are always at least two, and usually more, adults present in every classroom setting.
3) No child is ever allowed out of the line-of-sight of a volunteer.
4) No unauthorized personnel is allowed to work with children.
State of the art paging and security system allows our Kid City workers to page parents of small children if the need arises.
When can a child experience a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?
This varies with each individual child, depending upon background and learning experience. When a child expresses a desire to accept Christ as Saviour, a trained children’s counselor thoroughly explains what the Bible says about salvation.
When can a child be baptized?
Generally speaking, after salvation, children are eligible to be baptized at age six; however age is not the determining factor. When a child has accepted Christ as Saviour, they and their parents may speak with one of our trained children’s counselors, who can arrange for their baptism.
What about dedicating my baby to Christ?
Babies are definitely a gift from God! Baby dedication is a time for parents who are members of Lancaster Baptist Church, to show to the Lord and to the church family that they are dedicating themselves to raising their new child for God. This event does not have a part in a child’s salvation, but is a meaningful memory for parents and children.
