Volunteer Updates & Opportunities

Ice Cream Scoopers & Photographers!

Sunday, August 2 | 11:30 AM

Thank you to all who have already signed up to help with Sundae Sunday! We still need folks to help set up & bring some yummy toppings! And guess what: there's another way you can help out this Sunday! I (Ray) would love to see & share photos of this event, but I can't be there on Sunday. If you happen to take any photos or videos, please send them my way! You can upload media using this form, or email them to me directly at ray@commonflameuu.org

Volunteer with the Aesthetics Committee!

Monday, August 24 | 1 - 4 pm & 6 - 9 pm

We need your help with a super secret Aesthetics Committee project on Monday, August 24. This is a perfect volunteer opportunity for you if you're passionate about making our physical spaces beautiful, clean, and welcoming! There are two different types of volunteer opportunities on Monday, August 24: one is somewhat physically demanding, and the other is not. Click below to learn more & sign up!

Greet, Usher, or Host Our Sunday Services!

Every Sunday

Greeters: This is a great way to show your Common Flame pride! Greet folks & answer questions as they come in.

Ushers: Open/close sanctuary doors, pass offertory baskets, count money & people. Read about Jess Hendrickson's experience as an usher here!

Remember, you can sign up weeks in advance if you would like. You'll get a reminder email a couple of days before your volunteer days!

Volunteer at our Annual Community Picnic

Sunday, August 23 | 11 am - 3 pm

This year we are celebrating our new name and the picnic is going to be EPIC! Let's all work together to make the day great. There's plenty of opportunities for all who would like to help: from setting up & cleaning up, to helping with food and our watermelon eating contest.

Give Blood to Red Cross: Every Drop Counts!

Friday, August 21 | 1 - 6 pm

It's time for another Blood Drive at Common Flame! Reserve your time slot to donate blood with Red Cross, and help keep the supply afloat. Clicking the button below should bring you straight to our sign up page. Should you be asked for a sponsor code, use code CFUU. Bring a photo ID, your blood donor card, or two other forms of ID to your appointment.

No Harvest Table this Sunday!

Every Sunday (except this one)

Since it's Sundae Sunday this week, we will not have a Harvest Table on Sunday, August 2. But you can still sign up for upcoming dates! Harvest Table is powered by a small group of dedicated folks, many in their 70s, who do a lot to keep it going. If you’re able, signing up is a simple way to share the load and support the people who support all of us.

Join Our A/V (Audio/Visual) Team!

Varying Schedule

Tech-savvy folks, here is an opportunity for you to volunteer your time and skills: learn how to run our live stream equipment and help our events & services run smoothly for online viewers! Sunday availability is required, and occasional weekday/weeknight availability a plus. Interested? Send an email to Dr. Baker Purdon.
