Opportunities to Serve

Imagine…

Imagine how we can shine God’s light in ministries within the church and mission outreaches to the community by providing services to others. This form of stewardship not only helps others, but builds relationships and lets us have fun together while doing it.

Find a project to get involved in or create your own.

Current Opportunities

Regency Park Ministry

Would you like to help lead an informal one-hour outreach worship service on Sundays at 2:00 p.m. for about 30 very enthusiastic residents? We are looking for additional volunteers to periodically lead the service and to play music for the hymns. You can follow the UMC lectionary or create your own unique worship outline. To volunteer, contact the church office at 503.646.1598.

Regency Park Assisted Living Center, 8300 SW Barnes Road, Portland, OR 97225

Loaves and Fishes

We need primary and substitute drivers for Meals on Wheels delivery, and help in the kitchen and serving, on the third Wednesday of each month. Background checks will need to be completed before you can serve. If you can serve, please call the church office at 503.646.1598.
