PWAP Member's Statement Toward Leadership

I will respect the leaders, submit to their leadership and authority and co-operate with them wholeheartedly, understanding that God has placed me under their leadership

Attendance Policy

  1. You must be present at each rehearsal
  2. If you cannot make it to a rehearsal, you must notify the your director ahead of time.
  3. You must arrive promptly so we can make the most of our practice time.
  4. You must be at all events supporting the team and Gods plan

Expectations

  1. You must love Christ and have accepted Him as your Lord and Savior.
  2. You must be actively developing your relationship with Jesus Christ through a Quiet Time (QT) each day.
  3. You must have a desire to share Christ with others.

  5. You must be in junior high or older.
  6. You may not engage in any public displays of affection (PDA) at any time that PWAP is together as a group. Any PDA at other times should be conservative since reputation is a key part of PWAP.

Probation Policy

If at any time a member fails to cooperate with the leaders or to follow the team policies or behaves in a manner that affects the positive spirit of the team, and refuses to acknowledge and change his/her attitude or behavior when it is brought to his/her attention, he/she will be subject to probation. The probation period will be determined by PWAP senior leadership. If a member is placed on probation and there is no change of heart, the member will be dismissed from the team. PWAP leadership will meet to decide each case when problems occur, with the PWAP Program Director carrying out the decision with the member in question. Probation details will be documented and passed on to other FBC youth program for feedback on youth growth.

Additionally, academics are a key part of any youth’s growth and therefore each youth is expected to maintain a 2.0 average or higher. If a youth’s GPA falls below 2.0 he/she will be placed on probation until the next report card period. If the youth does not show improvement, the youth may be asked to put aside the PWAP team in support of his/her academics.

Dismissal

The PWAP Program Director may ask a team member (Youth or Leadership) to leave the team for any of the following:
