Immediate Needs
Opportunities for Service
We could use additional help in these ongoing ministries of the church:
- Ushers - Ushers provide welcome and hospitality to guests and members and play a critical and necessary role in facilitating our weekly worship service. If you would like to consider being an usher, please visit with one of our usher captains: Abe DeVaul, Ned Johnson or Pastor Kevin.
- Flower Ministry - Whenever the person who purchases the Sunday altar flowers asks us, we take those flowers to members who cannot be in church. Often the recipients are in the hospital or in skilled care. We could use a few more persons to help in the ministry of love by breaking up the altar flower arrangement into smaller bouquets and delivering them. You may take the flowers on Sunday after worship and prepare the smaller bouquets on Monday, if that is easier. If you'd like to help in this ministry, please contact Junella Schultz or the church office.
