Many different volunteer roles help make worship happen every week! How can you take part and serve? We encourage every member to support and serve in worship in some way. There are visible roles like greeter, reader, and assisting minister, and more "behind the scenes" roles such as livestream/camera operator, altar care, and fellowship/snack.
We welcome you to learn more and sign up to serve. Click here to view the instructions/information for each volunteer role.
Please check it out and sign up HERE for Holy Week & Easter as well as next quarter, April-June 2026 HERE. You can also sign up by the paper form in the church entryway , by indicating the role(s) you'll serve in, and either your availability or blackout dates. Then our parish administrator, Stacey Marien, creates the schedule for the quarter and notifies you via the email. You can view the current volunteer schedule in the binder by the sanctuary doors. Questions? Ask Pastor Brett. Thank you for signing up before Monday, March 23.
GLC Workday, 3/28
Mark your calendars now for a church workday, Saturday, March 28, 9am to 1pm. Inside and outside projects for all skill levels will be available. Please join us for part or all of the morning - help especially needed as we'll be mulching the garden, deep cleaning the sanctuary/altar items, and some key other small projects. Many hands make light work, and it's a great way to meet others, serve and accomplish projects together. See the list of projects and sign up ahead for a specific area you'd like to help with here or just join us on the day and you'll have something to do!
Our church is the site of the Georgetown Ministry Center "pop-up" location, serving as a second site for their drop-in center for folks experiencing homelesness in our community. Four mornings a week, the doors are open for all, with a GMC staff member overseeing the program. The pop-up offers shelter and a place of respite and safe rest for many, as well as coffee/snacks, laundry, connection to services, and more. GMC staff offer occasional programs in the space, as well as case management and support toward health and housing for all.
As a congregation we are proud to be a founding member organization of GMC, and have supported many programs and acute needs in the past, including winter shelter, meals, and more. Currently we regularly make breakfast burritos to stock our freezer for the pop-up guests, and participate in other seasonal support events. View more about GMC, its programs, current, needs, and ways to volunteer at their website here: https://georgetownministrycenter.org/.
Georgetown Ministry Center Volunteers Needed
Our neighborhood nonprofit homeless service provider, Georgetown Ministry Center (GMC), needs volunteers! GMC runs the "pop-up" location here in our church Monday through Thursday mornings, and the main center is located at Grace Episcopal Church, 1041 Wisconsin Ave. This time of year GMC particularly needs volunteers as college students are leaving town and the season changes - volunteers are needed at the main center at Grace Church Mondays through Saturdays. You can sign up for a three-hour shift as a volunteer easily here. Volunteers most often staff the window pickup at the main center, handing out coffee, supplies, and occasionally helping serve food or run laundry. Questions, speak with John Henry, GMC board rep for our church.
The GLC choir is looking to add members this fall. If you can carry a tune and enjoy the fellowship that music-making offers, please join us Sundays at 9 am. We rehearse anthems for several weeks ahead, so even those who travel frequently can get comfortable with the music. Questions? Speak to music director Pat Henry.
Garden Volunteers Needed!
All Volunteers welcome
GLC's gardens are a bright spot in our neighborhood, much appreciated by neighbors. But the expansive grounds take a lot of tending. Please consider joining our volunteer gardeners, who tackle weeding, trimming, raking, etc. on their own schedules. Tools are provided. To be added to our email group, please send an email to office@georgetownlutheran.com. And thank you!
