Volunteer Opportunities with Children
After School Program
The After School Program keeps kids off the streets until 5:00 p.m. while teaching them Bible Studies and leadership skills, providing academic tutoring, and having classes in skills such as cooking, gardening, guitar, and dance. Volunteers help lead these activities and build relationships with the K-6th graders from 3:30-5:00 p.m. on Mondays-Fridays.
Children’s Ministry
Monday nights from 6:30-8:30 p.m. is when we have the volunteers for SOS Children’s Ministry for kids Kinder-6th grade. Volunteers help with leading Bible study, facilitating craft, lesson, games & discipling kids.
Hearne Ministry
SOS has expanded its ministry to Hearne, TX. Each Wednesday night we take a team of volunteers from 6-8:30 p.m. to pick up kids in the neighborhoods and bring them to a local church where we have a Bible study with the kids. Volunteers help teach Bible lessons, lead small groups & exciting activities.
Nursery
The S.O.S. Nursery is in need of volunteers to help monitor nursery age children every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday night from 7:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m. Volunteers will help feed the children, read Bible stories and play with the children.
Bus Ministry
Our Bus Ministry provides transportation for our kids to and from S.O.S. activities. We currently have two buses as well as three vans that go out multiple times during the week. While the buses and volunteers are in the neighborhoods picking up the kids, crucial relationships are built. We not only need drivers for these buses, but we also need monitors to sit with the kids while traveling to and from S.O.S. activities.
On Location
During the summer time S.O.S. Children’s Ministry is in need of volunteers to help out with a special six week outreach. During this outreach S.O.S. Volunteers go to “at risk” neighborhoods where they are responsible for helping out with games, crafts, snacks, and lessons.
