-Definite beginning and ending to each task
-you don’t have to be a member of the church or ordained to get involved
-this ministry will use people’s specific talent or gift
-People can be involved just a little or as much as they have time

How It Will Work: We will compile an email list of volunteers in each of these areas. When there is a request in one of these areas, an email will be sent out to the list of volunteers. Volunteers will respond as they are able.

You are encouraged to add your name and email to the list in one (or more) of these ways you may be able to help others in need. Please see the kiosk for more information.
