Sing a Campfire Song at our Annual Campfire & Potluck!

Friday, July 17 | 6:30 PM

Share your vocal talents with fellow Common Flame congregants & friends this summer at our annual campfire (heads up: this year we will NOT have a real campfire due to fire restrictions, and we will be inside). We need folks to lead us in camp songs and/or teach us some new ones! We hope to see you there. If you'd like to lead a song, please email Laura and let her know. If you just want to sing-along, sign up to attend using the button below!

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.

Ice Cream Fanatics! Volunteer for Sundae Sunday

Sunday, August 2 | 11:30 AM

During the height of summer, join us on the patio after church for an Ice Cream Party! All are welcome and encouraged to enjoy a sweet treat while connecting with others. Help us make this a multi-generational event that is enjoyed by all! Volunteers are needed to make the magic happen by serving and purchasing ice cream (you'll be reimbursed), setting up and cleaning up, and bringing toppings. Please sign up here to volunteer!

Donate Personal Care Items to Community Table!

Sundays, August 2 - August 23 (after services)

The Women's Group will be collecting personal hygiene items for Community Table, an Arvada nonprofit serving families in need. Needs: tampons, pads, bar soap, body wash, razors, laundry soap, deodorant, lotion, sunscreen, and bandaids. Sample or hotel sizes are useful. Gather your items now to donate this August!

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. Click the button below, enter code 'JUC' to reserve a time slot. Bring a photo ID, your blood donor card, or two other forms of ID.

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.

Help our services run smoothly on Sundays

Every Sunday

Greeters: Welcome everyone at the front doors, answer questions, and let visitors know what to expect.

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!

Help out at the Harvest Table

Every Sunday

Harvest Table is powered by a small group of dedicated folks, many in their 70s, who do a lot to keep it going. Equity reminds us that the work shouldn’t fall on the same shoulders every week. If you’re able, signing up is a simple way to share the load and support the people who support all of us.
