CELL PHONE POLICY FOR STUDENT MINISTRIES TRIPS
As we enter into our respective Student Ministries trips we realize that we have been blessed with incredible opportunities to grown in faith and community while sharing the love of Jesus Christ. We also acknowledge that cell phones have the potential to be a remarkable tool and a great distraction. In order to more fully experience the opportunities in front of us we are laying out the following rules regarding student cell phone use during Student Ministry trips:
· Students are not permitted to use cell phones on job sites, during worship, during team building or group activities, or at meal times. Cell phone use is sill permitted during down time throughout the trip.· Students are not permitted to bring their cell phones to job sites, and the cell phone must be left at the living center- not in the vans or with the adult leader. · Students are permitted to use cell phones in the evenings to help with going to sleep as long as there is no potential for distracting or disturbing others. This means:
o There should be no light emitted from their phone (i.e. screens must be off- no games or videos) or charging devices o
o There is absolutely no picture taking or video recording in the sleeping areas, bathrooms, or any other non common area
o
Failure to uphold these standards may result in actions including:
- A verbal reminder
Medical Exceptions - In the event that a student needs to use a cell phone to monitor a medical issue throughout the trip, please coordinate needs and exceptions with the Student Ministry staff prior to the start of the trip.
Adult leaders will have their phones with them during the day and will be able to communicate as needed with other adults on the trip as well as trip leaders. They will also be available to communicate with parents in the event of an emergency.
Parents, please understand that these protocols are being put in place to allow students to fully engage in the work and fellowship God has in store for us. We ask that you help us with keeping these protocols by encouraging your students and knowing that communication may be limited throughout portions of the trip. In the event of an emergency where a student needs to be notified please contact the trip leader directly.
