Volunteers working with Adults

Sessions (Church Councils) oversee the selection and appointment of suitable volunteers to work with adults in the CRCA. Sessions use a variety of screening methods to ensure only suitable volunteers are appointed into adult ministry roles, including but not limited to:

  • Only appointing members and adherents to these volunteer roles
  • Reference checks
  • Seeking recommendations for appropriate individuals to work in particular adult ministries
  • Interviewing potential volunteers
  • Police checks and/or Working With Children Checks
  • Ministry questionnaires for completion by potential volunteers
  • Most Sessions choose to use the Volunteer Approval Process (which applies to all volunteers seeking to work with children in the CRCA) as the process for screening volunteers for adult ministries
