WE’RE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT…

 YOU!

Pastor Diane works very hard preparing for Sunday Worship Service. She can’t do it alone! 

Every Sunday we need congregation members to be Greeters, Ushers, Acolytes, Worship Assistants and Lectors. Oh yeah and how could I possibly forget our wonderful Hospitality! 

Unfortunately our volunteers for these much needed responsibilities are slowly dwindling.  

If you are willing and able to help out by doing one or any number of these awesome jobs please call the church office.

Don’t be shy, and don’t worry we will train you!

So please give us a call!
