St. Paul is not unlike other churches when it comes to volunteers. The majority of activities, tasks, weekly service roles, and favorite seasonal events are made possible because of our trusted servants. They have a passion for a particular area and are filled with joy to participate, teach, and share. Many volunteers work behind the scenes and members aren’t even aware of them. That isn’t to say though that the role they fill isn’t significant. Truth be told, much wouldn’t happen without our dedicated volunteers.
God created us all with unique talents. We are grateful for that because volunteer roles are require a vast spectrum of talents. There truly is an opportunity for everyone to serve and share their specific talents. What about time, you may ask? Think you don’t have time to serve? You would be surprised. There are needs which require one hour or less a week or month. Really! Have a lot of time to give? We have a need for you too.
