Info Center Volunteer Opportunity
When a person walks into a church service, we never know their back story...did their spouse divorce them this week? Did a loved one die yesterday? Did they get fired and are coming to see if God has anything to say about life...or are they feeling suicidal today? Greeting and welcoming people is such a blessing and opportunity!
We are in need of volunteers for the 2nd and 4th Sunday's at the 11:00am service, both upper and lower levels, and for 5th Sunday's. Contact Frank Beaty for more information.
