Connect Class

When becoming a new member of a congregation, it may be a little daunting finding your way around, not only through the physical buildings, but through the labyrinth of ministries and fellowship opportunities that are offered to you. Who do you contact? Where do you go? How do you find the latest information and RSVP […]

Many Hands Make Light Work

“Many Hands Make Light Work” this old adage is certainly true when it comes to Christ the King’s membership pitching in to show “holy hospitality” at Room in the Inn each month. For eleven months out of the year, CTK provides an evening meal, breakfast, and snacks, as well as fellowship and assistance to the […]

Never Forget!

Never Forget! We cannot and will not forget to honor volunteers. I’m reminded of volunteers we can relate to in tangible ways. We could not be a church without the dedicated volunteers to do so much for the church. Volunteers are the ones that make our congregations, schools, and ECC’s efficient and pertinent for our […]

Volunteers – The True Power Behind God’s Kingdom

More than any other entity in the world, the global Church relies on volunteers to accomplish its objectives…sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ throughout God’s Kingdom.

Mother’s Day at Christ the King, Memphis

Caroline readily […]

Volunteers from Chapel of the Good Shepherd

In a new church which meets in borrowed space, everyone is a volunteer doing what is necessary: cleaning and setting up the worship space; carrying in hymnals, altar paraments, communion ware, processional cross, baptismal font and bowel, keyboard, items for the visitors’ welcome table, Good Shepherd picture, coffee fellowship supplies, and coat hangers. After each […]

Smiling Faces and Helping Hands

Volunteers Make an Impact at the Mid-South District Office If you call or visit the Mid-South District Office, chances are you’ll be greeted by the friendly voice or smiling face of a volunteer.

In the Lord’s Army

At our church, Emmanuel Lutheran in Hermitage, it’s not uncommon to see some unusual items up near the altar when we arrive for worship. We know they are probably props for Pastor Enko’s Children’s Message. However, on a recent Sunday the spread was more lavish than usual. There was a six foot table covered with all […]
