Volunteer With Grace
Volunteers are essential to Grace, making significant contributions to almost every aspect of church life.
Volunteer Opportunities
Did you know that almost 190 individuals volunteer their time in Grace ministries, projects, and events? We are so grateful for their generosity!
If you’ve been thinking about volunteering, here are some roles you might find interesting:
Join a Session Committee
Ministries, programs and projects at Grace are overseen by 10 committees of Session: These committees are served by members and adherents of the congregation who have interest in the ministry of a particular committee and are able to meet typically once per month, by Zoom or in-person. There is a regular rotation of membership and there are currently opportunities for service in a number of these committees.
- Engagement & Service
- Financial Management
- Governance
