On February 18th, 2025 the Congregation Council of Messiah Lutheran Church adopted a Child Safety Policy for our congregation.
The purpose and intention of this policy is to reduce the risk for abuse to a child, youth, or vulnerable person during events and activities associated with Messiah Lutheran Church. Our faith calls us to offer hospitality and protection to all vulnerable people: children, youth, differently-abled, etc. This policy is one way we seek to live out this calling as people of faith.
All volunteers who work with our children are required to read and sign the policy which is kept on file in the office. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the office or Pastor Courtney for more information.
All those under the age of 18 are required to have a Photo Release Form on file. If you need to submit one, please download, sign, and drop it off at church to be kept in the office.
