Our congregation represents a commitment by many individuals to work in partnership for the greater good. When you volunteer, we hope the experience will fill you up. One way you can ensure that is to “serve with grace.” That means you consider your gifts and discern where and how to use them. When you use your gifts, you will be nourished, not drained, and serving will become a spiritual practice. There are many opportunities to support your church with your time and talents and at the same time strengthen your connections to fellow members of the congregation:
