Looking for a way to give back and meet new people? Our church runs a variety of volunteer programs that fit different ages, interests, and schedules. Whether you want to help with a food drive, mentor a youth group, or join a clean‑up crew, there’s something here for you.
We partner with local schools, charities, and community groups to run projects that make a real difference. Recent events include a fun fundraising night that raised money for a nearby homeless shelter, a environmental clean‑up that tackled litter in the park, and a skills workshop for young people interested in leadership. Each activity is open to anyone who wants to pitch in, and you’ll always have a clear role and a friendly team.
Joining is simple. Just sign up at the church office or fill out the online volunteer form. After you register, a coordinator will match you with a program that matches your interests. If you’re not sure where to begin, ask about the Community Outreach group – they handle most of the projects and can show you where you fit best.
Being a volunteer isn’t just about helping others; it also builds confidence and new skills. Many people say they discovered a love for event planning, public speaking, or gardening through our programs. Plus, you’ll get to meet fellow parishioners and make friendships that last beyond the project.
Our volunteers also get access to occasional training sessions. These cover topics like effective communication, safety on site, and how to organize a charity drive. The training is short, practical, and meant to help you feel prepared, not overwhelmed.
If you have a special talent – like music, cooking, or tech – let us know. We often need musicians for worship services, cooks for community meals, and folks who can set up laptops for online tutoring. Your unique skill can become the centerpiece of a new volunteer initiative.
We understand life gets busy, so most of our programs are flexible. You can sign up for a one‑off event or commit to a regular weekly slot. Whatever you choose, you’ll be part of a supportive team that values every contribution, big or small.
Ready to make a difference? Come to our next volunteer meetup on Thursday at 7 pm in the parish hall. Bring a friend, ask questions, and see how you can start helping right away. We can’t wait to welcome you aboard!
