First United Methodist Church At First UMC, all volunteers with children and youth undergo an orientation and training program to acquaint them with The United Methodist Church’s guidelines and procedures for the safety of all our children, and to prepare them for their roles as teachers, caregivers, supervisors and role models at First UMC. As part of the orientation, volunteers receive a copy of our Safe Sanctuaries Handbook which contains the guidelines for volunteering and a full explanation of our Safe Sanctuaries policies. Volunteers must sign a statement of acknowledgement and agreement. For more information relating to the Children’s Ministries of FUMC please contact: Rev.
