VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES AT SAVING GRACE

"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.  If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." (1 Peter 4:10-11)

Some of the volunteer openings available at Saving Grace include the following opportunities (which can often be scheduled to fit your availability):    

• Work Groups: Groups willing to do deep cleaning, yard work, and other projects around Saving Grace

Weekend Warriors

Weekend Warrior opportunities are for women who want to get plugged into Saving Grace on the weekends.  Perhaps you work during the week and are still wanting to be involved in ministry to young women in transition.  Perhaps you want to share your interests and hobbies with others in a casual setting, whether it be hiking, cooking, scrapbooking, jewelry making, watching movies, or just spending time with the residents. 

Weekend Warriors are ladies who are willing to come in one Saturday or Sunday a month during the hours of 1:00-5:00pm to be a responsible presense in the home.  For more information, contact Jaclyn Williams at (479) 636-1133

VOLUNTEER FORMS

Have you already talked with our Volunteer Coordinator about how to get plugged into Saving Grace?  Are you looking for the right forms to get things started?  Then you are at the right place. 

Please download the following forms to your computer, print them out, and fax or drop them by. Also, due to the expense involved in requesting criminal background checks through the state, we would like to ask potential volunteers to include an $11 check (payable to Saving Grace) with their application paperwork.
