How Well Am I Doing in Fulfilling My Calling
to Service?
A
Sunday School Worker’s Self-Evaluation Tool
The Scripture says: “Study to show thyself
approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy
2:15.
This form is an idea for helping a Sunday School
worker celebrate again the marvelous calling to service, to recall progress
toward dreams and goals, and to project actions for future self-improvement.
Feel free to adapt this tool to your needs and to add additional ideas.

this place of service? That blessing might have come through the affirmation
of your pastor, other Sunday School workers, or members.)
