Ushers welcome folks to worship and are responsible for checking the building during worship, counting attendees, and bringing forward the offering.

Youth & Children’s Ministries
Children’s Sunday School Assistants and Youth Group Support volunteers support Liv and provide loving, joyful presence to kids in our parish.
All volunteers with children and youth must be trained in Safeguarding God’s Children.
Coffee hour is a special time for fellowship before Christian formation. Volunteers make coffee, set out snacks, and tidy up the kitchen after coffee hour.
