What is rEcess?
rEcess is a respite care ministry for families with children who have special needs. It allows parents to have a night out, while the children with special needs and their siblings come play games, make crafts and learn about Jesus.
When is rEcess?
rEcess happens the first Friday of the month during the school year.
How can you help?
rEcess needs a lot of volunteers. The more volunteers we have, the more families we can serve. If you are interested in helping, or just want more information about rEcess, please contact: NBoyd@ctrtulsa.org or Sarah.Wendelbo@gmail.com
No experience necessary! We will train you.

PARENT RESOURCES
“Anxiety is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.” – Arthur Somers Roche
Many people suffer from anxiety, some to extremes, especially post-Covid. If you notice your children or youth struggling with anxiety, check out this helpful online resource: Anxiety Parent Guide
If anxiety becomes life-altering, it might be helpful to get professional help.

GENERAL
ACOLYTES: Students can begin to serve as acolytes in third grade at CTR! Students are trained on training days, or as requested if they are unable to make it on the scheduled day. Our acolyte schedule is based on volunteers from our students. The youth are reminded that even though you may be confirmed, you are still encouraged to acolyte until you enter high school.

Junior Roustabouts is a service group for children from preschool to high school and their parents. Service days are led by the Roustabouts at CTR. Work days are scheduled as needed!
