Help Volunteers Serve via Ministry Assessment

The church needs to enlist every person to serve according to their unique God-given spiritual gifts, passions, skills, personality, training/certification and life experience.
 
PDS Live helps you do just that using any of the popular ministry assessment tools like SHAPE, Network, Uniquely You, etc. or some other system of your choosing or design.  All the following codes are customizable to fit your church.

• Spiritual Gifts - track each person's gifts.  There are 26 gifts as mentioned in the Bible preloaded into PDS.


• Passions - identify each person's passions and desire for ministry.  There are 57 preloaded potential areas of passion.


• Training/Education/Licensing - You can also track what kind of education people have in your church.  For example, children's and youth ministers need to know who has CPR training.  You may also want to track who has a commercial driver's license and is willing to drive the church bus. 


• Skills - PDS comes preloaded with over 150 different skills that can be tracked for each person.  This category can be used to identify all the plumbers, carpenters, computer technicians, landscapers, babysitters, etc. in your church! 


• Experience - PDS comes preloaded with 20 common life experiences that people go through that can be useful in ministry.


• Personality - PDS comes preloaded with many personality codes used in the major personality tests.  You can use your own system or change the existing ones.  You can even track the scores of the tests if desired.


• If your church provides a personal interview designed to help recruit and place people in ministry you can track who needs to be interviewed and by whom.


• Background Checks - We assume your church has a background check policy for volunteers who serve in children's ministry.  PDS Live makes it easy to track any kind of prerequiste check you need to do prior to approving someone to serve in sensitive areas. We also offer Automated Background Checks done via the internet in seconds with no paper work!
