If the goal of our mission is to coach students to multiply their faith into others, then we obviously have to have access to them.<\/p><p>Becoming an insider is the first step to getting there. A public school setting is a relational ecosystem, made up of students surrounded and supported by a team of caring adults. Your job is to become part of that adult team. That happens when administrators, teachers, support staff, and students actually see you and can say, &#8220;Oh that&#8217;s Brittany, she&#8217;s one of us.&#8221; You might be thinking, that feels a long way off, and it can take some time, but most often God opens the doors that you need to give you the opportunity to become an insider. You will discover that God&#8217;s been preparing for your arrival the whole time. Let&#8217;s take a look at several principles that help build a bridge to the campus.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-393fd94e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"393fd94e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3093e3d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3093e3d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">1<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-198a77ce elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"198a77ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Pray for Connections<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5fad7c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f5fad7c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b381199 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b381199\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The foundation to becoming an insider is prayer.

When you serve, you communicate your dedication to the school and your heart to help make it the best place possible for everyone.<\/p><p>Many schools have needs that school personnel cannot meet. By volunteering to help meet those needs, it gives you a good reason to be on campus, shows you care about what the school cares about, and brings you into contact with more and more students. Here are just some of the possible ways you could volunteer.<\/p><ul><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Help coach an athletic team<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Serve at extracurricular activities<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Chaperone school trips<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Get involved with the PTA<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Assist in classroom tutoring<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Mentor students<\/li><li data-gc-list-depth=\"1\" data-gc-list-style=\"bullet\">Volunteer in an area of your interest by organizing activities that add value to the students&#8217; experience, such as journalism, drama, art, or athletics.<\/li><\/ul><p><br \/>These are first steps you can take in order to open up doors to the campus, so that you can walk through them, as well as people coming behind you.<\/p><p>One final thought: the principal of the school will ultimately decide whether or not you are welcome. At some schools, they will not allow access to students, but that&#8217;s not the end of the world. This will lead you to find Christian students to work through and build into spiritual leaders. In some cases, a spiritual movement has emerged faster because students naturally have more freedom. So relax your expectations, walk by faith, and find that friendly insider who can help you become one, too.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ae31d9 content-align-cta-center content-align--tabletcta-center content-align--mobilecta-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-eael-cta-box\" data-id=\"0ae31d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"eael-cta-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-call-to-action cta-basic bg-lite cta-preset-1\">\n        <h2 class=\"title eael-cta-heading\">Next Step<\/h2><p>Don't know where to start?
