The ladies Auxiliary from the Church is in need of new members. Since COVID they have lost many of their members. They meet occasionally on Sunday mornings. They have worked gathering items in need for several outreach programs. They have aslo done the Sundae Sunday and teamed up with the BAC to do some of the meals. They understand you may not be able to help out all the time but when you can is vastly appreciated.
Canterbury College is looking for volunteers to help with the Student Dinners. See poster in parish hall for more information.
We are once again looking for volunteers for the following:
Greeters to welcome parishioners
Readers for the scriptures during service
Hosts for coffee hour
If interested please contact the office and let us know how you would like to get involved.
