Other Volunteer Opportunities:
Social Media
Clifton Springs UMC's desire to share Christ includes using Facebook, Constant Contact and the CSUMC website to reach people. Are you comfortable with images, written word and software tools? Consider using your social media expertise to enhance our outreach. Contact Pastor Brian at pastorbrianfellows@gmail.com to volunteer.
Music
Solists and groups are welcome throughout the year. Our choir sings at the 9:30 AM service during the Sunday school year (Sept. thru June). Practice begins promptly at 8:30 AM on Sunday mornings in the sanctuary. Please contact Dave Hamilton if you wish to be a soloist or provide music at either service. Dave can be reached at dhhamilton@live.com if you have any questions.
We are also planning to create a Praise Team to lead our contemporary worship services. We're looking for guitarists and other instrumentalists, as well as vocalists. If you are interested in participating in this ministry, please let Dave know.
Acolytes
What is an acolyte?
Acolyte comes from a Greek word meaning companion, attendant, or helper. In our church, an acolyte helps with the worship service by lighting the candles and extinguishing them after the service.
What does it mean to be an acolyte?
As an acolyte, you will light and extinguish (put out) the candles on the special table that we call the altar. On special occasions, you may also light other candles, such as the candelabra. This is an important job because you help to set the tone for worship. Click HERE for more specific information.
Ushers and Greeters
It is a privilege and an honor to serve our Lord as an usher or a greeter for a worship service. You are the first face friends and visitors see when they arrive at our church. This gives you a unique opportunity to act as a welcoming presence on behalf of God, the congregation, and Pastor Brian. It is a critical part of the ministry at CSUMC, Click HERE to see more information about duties and requirements.
Making worshipers welcome is a goal of all at our services and events. Greeters especially serve to welcome people, provide directions as needed, pass out the attendance pads, count worshipers and assist with offering. Sign up for this vital ministry by signing up at church or contacting the Strubs at donna.strub@yahoo.com
