Safe Sanctuaries Online Training
|
As Christians, we take our responsibilities to children and youth very seriously. When we neglect to take adequate precautions to protect them from abuse while in our care, we fail in our responsibilities as Christians. We are committed to providing as safe and secure an environment as possible for all children and youth who participate in the ministries and activities sponsored by our church.
Therefore, this “Safe Sanctuaries” policy describes the minimum guidelines to provide a safe, secure environment for ministry to all God’s people, especially children and youth. First, please contact your ministry leader or the church office (410-643-5361) if you would like to be certified: * Children's Ministries-Sharon Richter * Middle School & High School Youth-Danae Allison * Nursery * Children's Chapel-Steve & Cheri Sweet * Kid's Club-Jeff Reidel Your ministry leader will provide you with all required documents necessary to complete for certification. Additionally, please click the link below to take the test. You will watch a series of videos and answer corresponding questions. The training will take around 20-25 minutes.

In person trainings (replacement of online video) will be held 4 times a year (January, March, June, & September) in which one is mandatory.
