- Volunteer Opportunity: Middle School Ministry Leader: Do you have a heart for middle schoolers and a desire to help them grow in their faith? We’re looking for a volunteer to lead or co-lead our Middle School Ministry. This is a wonderful opportunity to build meaningful relationships with students, encourage them in their walk with Christ, and help them develop a lasting desire to know God more deeply. Whether you have years of experience working with youth or simply a passion for walking alongside the next generation, we’d love to talk with you. If you feel God tugging on your heart to step into this important role, or if you’d like more details, please send an email to deacons@thecharlottechurch.org. Let’s invest in our middle schoolers together—they are not just the future of the church; they are the church today!
- Calling All Professionals, Entrepreneurs, and Business Owners of The Charlotte Church! We’re excited to announce that on Sunday, November 16th from 12:00PM to 2:30 PM, The Charlotte Church will host a Career Fair for our middle school and teen students in the church gym — and we need your help to make it a success!
Our youth are full of big dreams, but often limited in their exposure to the wide range of career paths available to them. This is your chance to inspire the next generation by sharing your career journey, experience, and insights. One conversation, one story, or one piece of advice could be the spark that sets a young person on their future path. Here’s our ask for participation:- Set up a 5x5 ft booth in the gym. Include anything you like to showcase your field—tables, banners, pamphlets, screens, swag, candy, games, etc.
- Be available for one follow-up virtual meeting: Students and parents who want to learn more will be able to sign up for a follow-up conversation. This gives them the opportunity to dive deeper into your career field and ask more personal questions of what it takes to be successful in your career field.
- Lunch will be provided
- If you’re interested in participating, please sign up here: https://forms.gle/E5k1XQcESncbr3326
