Critical Roles:
Greeters – This important ministry involves serving as a friendly face as members and guests enter onto our church campus on Sunday morning. You may be asked to provide directions to basic locations within the church such as restrooms, the Sanctuary and the children’s area. Greeters are scheduled to serve one month per quarter in hour shifts throughout Sunday morning.
Prayer Team – Our prayer team is made up of faithful members who volunteer one day a month to be in prayer for the names of persons who have requested prayer, and for other members who are experiencing ill health, rough times in their lives, as well as joys. Some volunteers come and spend quiet time at the church and some pray at home.
Insiders Visitation Ministry – The Insiders Visitation Ministry provides the continued love of Christ through contact and support to members who may no longer have the ability to attend worship every Sunday. Volunteers for this ministry have the unique opportunity to bring the love of FirstChurch to our Insiders and keep them connected to their church through a once-a-month visit and/or phone call.

Reception Desk – Five volunteers are needed to work the reception desk from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays, which includes answering the phone and greeting visitors. Volunteers may choose one day a week or multiple days.
Media Team – 10 volunteers are needed to help with the media production of the 10 a.m. service, including camera operation and other duties. Media volunteers rotate on a monthly basis.
