Office Helper – Linda Cammilleri, CoordinatorWhat:
Help is needed to assemble the printed weekly
bulletins and monthly newsletters. Help
is also needed periodically with special projects and mailings, as well as with
routine office tasks.
How often:
Help is needed on a weekly or occasional basis.
You might want to volunteer on a routine schedule or be on a potential
availability list to be called upon when needed for special projects.
What:
Every year, congregations from the Northern Illinois
Synod gather for two days (third weekend in June, from Friday morning to
Saturday at 3 p.m.) at Augustana College in Rock Island, IL.
The business of the Synod is taken care of at that time (i.e., approving
a budget for the Synod, as well as setting policy, etc.).
In addition, there are wonderful opportunities to worship together.
Our congregation covers the cost. We
stay overnight Friday in a local motel.
How often:
Once a year, in June. We are allowed two delegates from our congregation, along
with the Pastor.
What:
Once a year, in the fall, our coalition of ELCA
churches in Rockford, known as Rockford Area Lutheran Ministries, has an annual
meeting, summarizing its work as well as presenting its budget and plans for the
next year. Along with the Pastor,
we need two delegates to attend this meeting.
How often:
Once a year.
Library Helper – Myrna Hagemann, ChairmanWhat:
Help is needed to check in and shelve books and to
process materials. Training is
provided.
How often:
Sunday morning volunteers help once a month between
or after services. Materials are
processed on workdays as announced (see calendar or bulletin).
