Spark Night FAQ's

How can families participate?
Parents: You get to volunteer for an area of service throughout the year! Not only will you meet new friends, but you’ll make the program possible for your child!
Younger Siblings: Childcare, called Sparklers, is provided for children ages 0–Preschool on nights when their parents are volunteering. Meals are provided at no cost.
Older Siblings: Interested youth are welcome to volunteer as helpers. Middle schoolers can count their service toward their confirmation requirements.

What is Spark?
Kids have their faith “sparked” in different ways. Some are “sparked” through reading, writing or a combination and some are “sparked” through hands-on activities. Spark is a new curriculum that encourages all kinds of learners and incorporates using the bible with every lesson. More info. is available at www.activatefaith.org.
