All year long, your kids ministry leaders have faithfully shown up. They’ve taught biblical truth, built meaningful relationships with families, and brought energy and fun into your ministry spaces week after week. Before summer schedules shift and routines change, take time to pause and say thank you. Host a summer breakroom party for church volunteers to celebrate and wind down from their school year commitment and welcome the summer months!
