Opportunities to Serve

ESL Plus is looking for a helper in our Basic class. The helper will assist the teacher in teaching the alphabet to students and sounds of each letter. Other activities may be assigned later. If you’re seeking a place of ministry, want to help people, and show Christ’s love, ESL needs you! Please contact Clay VanDussen for more information.

Children’s Ministry: Although we have many volunteers, we are still struggling to meet needs.

  • Our Nurseries are dangerously low on volunteers each week

  • Our Sunday School classes still need 4 helpers. The application can be found here!

  • Our T&T Girls program on Wednesday night is in need of a Director and many more leaders. You must be a member to fill this role.

Children’s Ministry can not happen without volunteers. Please consider serving if you are able! If you are unable to serve, would you please pray that God would provide the people to fill these needs? If you have questions on how to get plugged in, please email Hannah Haney or call the church office.

We are in need of Wednesday night drivers and bus captains for our REACH program. If you are interested, please contact James Ware or John Hoogenboom.
