Children's Worship
Come worship with our young church members in Children’s Worship, and let them get to know you. It’s a gift for all our members to know each other! We need our people to love and serve our 3K-Kindergarten children as we worship together in Children’s Worship. Please join us! BONUS if you have a teen or tween because this is a great way to serve together! SERVE
Parking VolunteersWe are looking for volunteers to help parking on Sunday mornings. As we help God’s people gather, you will have three main responsibilities: Safety, Convenience, and Hospitality. Please contact Will Bennett (willbennett1020@gmail.com) with any questions, and you can read more information about the duties and responsibilities here: Parking Details
SIGN UP
Sunday Morning GreetersWe would love your help on Sunday mornings to greet and help visitors and newcomers find their way around the building. It would be great if you could sign up to work both shifts in the designated areas on one Sunday and even better if you could commit to a month at a time or plan to serve regularly each month, for example the first Sunday of every month or the third Sunday of every month.
Communion Prep Team
We are looking for people to serve on our Communion Prep Team on Sunday mornings. This team arrives before the first service to prepare the elements for communion for both services. Preferably, once you sign up, you will serve on this team once every six to eight weeks. If interested in volunteering, please contact Kadie Laughlin, klaughlin@covpres.com.
