We have many members who volunteer every time we are the hosts. We need new, fresh helping hands! Try-it, you may like it and we know you will feel personally rewarded. We need volunteers for the following positions:
Dinner Hosts - provide, serve and share a family style meal
Overnight Hosts - spend the night at the church in case a guest needs help during the night
Drivers - drive guests to IHN Family Center and/or back to Thomas Church daily
Set Up/Tear Down - preparing for the arrival of guests/packing up after departure
