CASSEROLE MINISTRY

“Never worry about the numbers.  Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.” These are words by Mother Teresa.

Did you know that you don’t have to wait for a group from LHUMC to go to First Fruits Farm to volunteer there? You can sign up with the farm directly and go when it is convenient for you. Just follow this link:

Greetings in Christ!

You are invited to participate in an opportunity to get involved in a ministry of practical and spiritual value that serves our LHUMC community in a tangible way.

Our Tuesday Work Crew is seeking interested members to join its team of folks who perform routine tasks inside and outside of the church facility, to ensure the continuity of building and grounds operation and maintenance. (Examples: gardening, painting, carpentry repairs, setting clocks/thermostats, minor plumbing repairs, organizing and procuring materials, planning work projects, etc.)

     No special skills or talents are required – just a desire to be a part of a friendly and enthusiastic group.  And if Tuesday mornings don’t fit your schedule, other days/times can be arranged.

     Please prayerfully consider joining this ministry, which has been an integral part of our church for many years.

     Volunteering on this ministry is a great way to plug into the church, feel like part of a community, enjoy spirited fellowship, and serve Jesus at the same time.

     We seek to be a blessing to our church community.  And we look forward to the tremendous things God is doing through this ministry.

We have a very special way that all can be involved in our worship experience at our church-

Here’s an opportunity to serve-

We are seeking volunteers to serve as Ushers to Welcome worshipers. We’ll provide brief training prior to your beginning these duties so you’ll be ready to serve.

Please prayerfully consider if you would like to serve in this special way. This is also another opportunity to warmly welcome all to LHUMC.

Please contact Dan Hiltz or Megan Renes if you would like to be added to our list of volunteers. You can email us at dhiltzy@gmail.com 

and mnrenes@gmail.com.

Thank you for considering this request.
