Help With Set Up, Clean Up, and Deliveries for Sardis Serves Together
Mission Ministry invites you to be part of Sardis Serves Together as we support our friends at Room in the Inn. We’re looking for volunteers to help set up for this special event on January 3, assist with cleanup on January 4, and help make deliveries on January 5. Ready to serve alongside your church family? Sign up today!
Children’s Church Volunteers
We’re launching a children’s church program during the 9am service for ages 4-2nd grade and need caring adults to help lead age-appropriate lessons and activities. This is a wonderful opportunity to invest in our children’s faith while helping parents fully engage in worship. Interested? Sign Up Here
AV Tech Volunteers
Support our worship services and special events by operating the soundboard on Sunday mornings and for occasions like funerals and weddings. AV Tech volunteers help ensure clear audio for meaningful worship experiences. Interested in serving? Contact John Nipe, Technical Arts Coordinator.
Worship Lay Leader
Lead a spoken part of worship like the call to worship, prayer of thanksgiving after the offering or another part of the service. Instructions and liturgy will be provided for you, or resources will be provided for you to write your own prayer if you choose. Sign Up Here
Sunday Morning Usher
Welcome and pass out bulletins to folks as they arrive to worship, pass offering plates during offering collection time and help with a few other tasks. Opportunities are available to greet and hand out bulletins from a seated position too! Full instructions are provided when you sign up. Sign Up Here
Sanctuary Stewards
Help maintain our worship space by ensuring pews are properly arranged and stocked with hymnals, Bibles, friendship pads, and pew cards. Sanctuary Stewards play a vital role in creating a welcoming and organized environment for our congregation’s worship experience.
Interested in serving? Contact Dave Templeman, Chair of Worship Ministry.
Deliver Flowers from Worship to Homebound Members
Take flowers to homebound members or others needing extra love and care from the church. Pick-up is around noon on Sundays in the sacristy (or 11am on summer Sundays) located in the Sanctuary near the Historical Room. Sue Chowning determines where the flowers will be delivered, and this will be communicated to you in a separate e-mail after you sign up. The time indicated on the signup form is approximate. Some recipients will take the flowers at the door and others would like for volunteers to sit and visit for a while. Each volunteer is usually responsible for 2 flower deliveries. Sign Up Here
CHILDREN & YOUTH VOLUNTEERS
Help create community through shared meals! We’re doing potluck-style this year, so you only need to bring one dish (not a whole meal). No youth ministry experience required—we just need willing hands to make fellowship happen. When we all pitch in, it’s easy! Learn more and sign up here.
We are so glad you have interest in volunteering with our children and youth! Whether you are volunteering in the nursery, as a Sunday School teacher, youth advisor, or at VBS, all volunteers working with children and youth must first complete our Child and Youth Protection Training.!
For more information about the training or to get started, please contact Amanda Hooks or Genie Richards.
