I volunteer as a check in to be an example to my son about what it means to invest in our church family. It allows me to help where it’s needed and still hear an awesome sermon. I might not feel like I can handle a class full of kiddos, but I can definitely help get them checked in and where they need to go, and sometimes I even get bonus hugs!
