This form is for adults and youth who wish to work as volunteer assistants in Children’s or Youth Ministries at Argyle Road Baptist Church. We believe this information is necessary to protect our children and volunteers.

Information received is confidential and is being gathered for the purposes of screening ministry personnel and placing them into ministry with children or youth. The information gathered here will be used for the purposes of supporting the ministries at Argyle Road Baptist Church.

When you submit this form, it goes to the pastor of the church for approval. It will then be stored securely in the church office and treated as confidential. The only others who will have access to it as needed are the Chair of the Deacons and the head(s) of Children’s or Youth ministries. Please note that the form is transmitted from the website to the church by email, which is not a secure form of transmission. If you would prefer a paper form, please contact the office or pick one up at the back of the sanctuary at the church.

Thank you in advance for your partnership!

Application Form:

In order to provide a safe and secure environment for our children and youth, we believe it is necessary to include the following questions as part of our application process. All information will be kept confidential by church leadership. (Police may access this information, under warrant, if requested.) Answering yes to any of the questions may not necessarily preclude your involvement in ministry. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
