What to Expect:

Working as teams we will inspect shoeboxes, add filler items, scan labels, and organize gifts by age and gender for shipment. Some tasks may involve heavy lifting, and the pace of the warehouse is quick-so flexibility is key! Every role is vital to making sure each shoebox is ready to bless a child.

With more space comes extra opportunities. There are servants needed on Wednesday nights in Children's Ministry, weekly in the parking lot, and with Saturday morning clean team. Click the link below to join a servant team.
