VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Great Ways to Help!
All volunteers are welcome! If you want to volunteer to help, call the church office. You can choose to help out once a year, once a month, or more frequently if your schedule allows. Please consider getting involved. It's a great way to meet other members and learn more about the church.
