Volunteer/Service Opportunities


We have a need for volunteers in the following service areas:


  • Check-In Attendants Needed - We are in need of Check-In Attendants at the check-in stations for preschool and children on both floors. If you would be interested in helping us with this important job, contact Bro. Michael. Training will be provided.

  • Shut-In Ministry - Becky West is compiling a database of shut-ins, and we hope to be able to match volunteers to shut-ins, providing an opportunity to build a rapport between the two and enabling volunteers to identify and help to meet the needs of the shut-in on a very personal level. Volunteers will use a checkllist to assess such needs as safety issues, food availability, housekeeping, dementia, medical equipment, etc. We have doctor and nurse volunteers to provide advice on meeting medical needs, as well as resources for medical supplies, glasses and medical equipment. Anyone who is interested in becoming involved in this ministry should contact the church office.
