Safety Volunteer

Description

A large part of our mission at Rock House Kids is to provide a safe place for inner-city kids. Security volunteers share in this mission and play a vital role in our evening programming.

Security Volunteers:

  • Serve as crossing guards and eyes for any unsafe activity around the building as kids leave and arrive
  • Are provided with a walkie-talkie to communicate with RHK staff.
  • If possible, plan to hang out and share a meal with the kids. This will help in building trust-based relationships with them.

All Rock House Kids Volunteers:

  • Provide a consistent & strong presence for our kids
  • Build trust-based relationships
  • Demonstrate a strong faith walk

Programming Info:

  • Arrive at RHK at 4:55pm and finish by 8:15pm, Monday through Thursday.
  • Security Volunteers are needed all four nights.
    • We will work with you to determine the night/nights that work best with your schedule.

Our Beliefs:

GOD — We believe there is One God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He is truly God and truly man. Matthew 28:19


SCRIPTURE —We accept the Bible as the inspired Word of God. It was written by men, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, is authoritative, and without error. 2 Timothy 3:15, Hebrews 4:12


HUMANITY — We believe every person matters to God. All people were created in the image of God to have a relationship with him, but became separated from God through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through their own efforts. Titus 3:5, 2 Corinthians 5:15, Romans 3:23


SALVATION — We believe that the sacrifice and death of Jesus Christ on the cross provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, God freely offers salvation to anyone who places their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sins. - Romans 5:8, Romans 10:9, Hebrews 9:12-15


"But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” Luke 18: 15-17 NIV
