Safe Sanctuary Policy

The General Conference of The United Methodist Church in April 1996 adopted a resolution aimed at reducing the risk of all forms of child abuse in the church. The Social Principles of The United Methodist Church state “... children must be protected from economic, physical and sexual exploitation, and abuse.” God calls us to make our churches safe places, protecting children and other vulnerable persons from all forms of exploitation and abuse.

Purpose - Our congregation’s purpose for establishing this Policy for Child Abuse Prevention and the accompanying procedures is to demonstrate our absolute and unwavering commitment to the physical safety, emotional integrity, and spiritual growth of all our children, youth, teens and adults.

Statement of Covenant - We will follow reasonable safety measures in the selection and recruitment of workers; we will implement prudent operational procedures in all programs and events; we will educate all our children and youth workers regarding the use of all appropriate policies and methods (including discipline); we have a clearly defined procedure for reporting a suspected incident of abuse that conforms to the requirements of state law. We will be prepared to respond to media inquiries if an incident occurs. All persons involved with children and youth are required to be Safe Sanctuary trained. Monthly training is provided with dates posted in The Messenger.
