Serve
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 1Peter 4:10
GMS:
Do you enjoy meeting new people? Have a great handshake? Perhaps the Greeters, Meeters, Seaters (GMS) ministry would be the place for you. As a GMS you get to welcome our Sunday morning guests and answer any questions they may have about Community Covenant. The Welcome Center is also another place for smiling faces to serve. For more information on helping with this ministry please contact the church office.
Children’s Ministry:
Does a room full of little kids sound scary to you? If so this might not be the place for you! On the other hand if a room full of laughing active children makes you smile then this might be the place to plug in. There are many service opportunities available such as:
- Sunday School and Kid’s Church teachers, helpers and substitute teachers
- Mid Week Children’s Ministry teachers, helpers, games
- Vacation Bible School teachers, helpers, games, worship and snacks
