As a Junior/Teen Helper (volunteer) at AnchorPoint Church, you agree to respect that AnchorPoint is a Christian church.
You don’t need to know everything about our beliefs, but you should honour how we live them out.
This commitment will be read and signed together with your parent/carer.
While serving, you agree to:
Your Role & Attendance - You’ll be given a simple role description and a roster.
- If you can’t come on a day you’re rostered, let your Team Leader know as early as possible so they can try to find someone to fill in.
How You Behave - Treat everyone with kindness and respect.
- Use clean, positive language.
- Work well with your team and listen to your leaders.
- Be honest and do your best in your role.
- Use phones/devices appropriately while serving.
- Wear appropriate clothing for your role.
Safety - Ask before giving hugs or any physical contact—some people may not be comfortable with it.
- Never be alone in private areas with children younger than you.
- When you are not serving in a child-related ministry, you must stay with your “Buddy” (Approved Adult Supervisor) when serving in a team separately from a parent or guardian.
- Stay in supervised areas at all times.
- Tell your Team Leader or a Pastor straight away if you feel unsafe or see someone being treated badly.
Confidentiality - Some things you see or hear while serving are private.
- Do not gossip or share personal information with friends or online.
Speaking Up You agree to tell a leader if:
- Someone is hurt, unsafe, or being treated wrongly.
- Someone is being bullied or is in danger.
- You feel uncomfortable about anything during serving.
Public Communication - Do not post or share anything online on behalf of the church.
