Parish Office Volunteers

The operation of the Parish Office depends on the many men and women who volunteer their time to the staff. Opportunities are primarily clerical in nature providing a need for a wide variety of skills for special projects. Volunteers fall under two categories:

  • As-needed: Volunteers are asked to share their time on a one-time project, usually done during business hours. There are also evening and weekend opportunities.
  • Weekly: Volunteers work a half-day, one day per week, in the morning or afternoon, to staff the reception desk or as an administrative aide to one of the ministry staffers.
