Volunteer Spotlight: Video Presentation

Justin Jones — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:00:52 +0000

Pastor uses lots of media in his presentations. Aboite is very blessed to have industry standard equipment to help us spread the Word, and a dedicated team of volunteers to make it all happen! Video volunteers come before the worship service to coordinate with Pastor and the worship leader, run the equipment during the worship service, and shut it all down after the service. We are grateful to these volunteers for their faithful service. There are several opportunities to get involved in this valuable ministry, especially for Monday evening worship services. The time commitment is approximately 3 hours, once or twice per month. If you are interested, we prefer that new volunteers have a basic knowledge of PowerPoint and be middle school age or older. We will provide training for the presentation equipment. For more information, please contact Justin@aboitechurch.org

Magazine Ministry Still Going Strong

Aboite has facilitated a ministry to the patients at Lutheran Hospital for many years. Karen Rydman and her dedicated volunteers process donations of used magazines and then distribute them to the patients. Donate your used magazines, less than one year old, in the vestibule at the west entrance. No catalogs please. There are several opportunities to serve in this ministry, with the recent opening of the fifth floor at the hospital. Please contact krydman11@frontier.com for more information about this exciting ministry.
