Safeguarding (formerly “Protecting God’s Children”)

All Saints’ Church takes seriously the protection of our youngest saints as well as vulnerable adults. We require extensive training for those individuals working with our children. 

We have researched and established “Best Practices” to protect God’s children which include:

• Careful screening of all staff and volunteers who work with children (applications, personal reference checks, national sexual offender registry and criminal background checks, etc.)

• Interaction and Monitoring Guidelines (two-person rule at all times)

• A Coded Check In-Check Out System with one entrance to the Children’s Wing

Please contact Tara Pedersen, Children’s Ministry Director, for more information on our safeguards or to register for one of our upcoming workshops. Childcare is available upon request.
