​Pies Needed!:
It’s that time of year again when our Breakfast Bunch treat us to a delicious
Thanksgiving meal after church on Sunday, November 16 . We always have a wonderful selection of pies for our indulgence. If you can donate a pie, please contact Joyce Isheim. Please bring your pie to Overmiller Hall on the morning of November 16.
​Christmas Craft Faire Volunteers:
Here are areas we need help:
-
Decorating Overmiller Hall
-
Baking Christmas cookies to sell
-
Prepping and serving a delicious lunch
-
Playing Christmas carols during the event
-
Pass our flyers around the community (Flyers will be available in the office and narthex. Please take some and distribute to friends, family, neighbors, businesses, etc. so we can spread the word and help get a great turnout!).
If you would like more information or volunteer, please contact Linda Campbell. Thank you!
​Breakfast Volunteers:
We are always looking for volunteers and our Sunday morning cooking is a great fellowship time. Anyone interested in hall setup, meal prep, cooking, or cleanup please contact Dave Glover. Anyone can join in: men, women, youth – cooking experience not required!
​Mix & Mingle Volunteers:
Thank you again to all of our Mix and Mingle volunteers who continue to make our weekly gathering such a success. While we have, for years, relied on two persons each Sunday, beginning in January, we hope to have an optional third person assist. That third person may just volunteer to bring cookies/treats or they could assist with prep and cleanup as well. Everyone enjoys our Mix and Mingle, but we just need a bit more help. Please contact Theresa Roeder if you are able to help us once or twice in the coming year. Thank you so
much!
​Sunday School Volunteers:
We're looking for spare hands to help with Sunday School as an aide. Our goal is to have a group of folks so that individuals will be helping once every three months or so. Men and women, young and old, it's your chance to hang for about 45 minutes with some of the funnest folks at church! Please stop by Pilgrim Hall before or after church for more information.
