It takes all of us doing our part for the church to function to the best of its ability. Vineville can’t be all it can be until we all find and fill the place that matches our unique gifts and talents. This is an ongoing process. As our life situations, experiences, and interests change, our best place of service may also change. On top of that, our availability and even mobility can impact our ability to serve.
We are looking for somebody to serve as the Volunteer Coordinator at Vineville. This person's job is not to recruit volunteers for every project or function. Rather, the focus for the Volunteer Coordinator is collecting information from members about what they are good at and using this information to help them find a place of service. Part of it is data management; knowing who among us has a green thumb is helpful when we have a yard or garden issue so that we get the right people on the job. Another part of the job is getting new members plugged into Vineville. This could include sending a letter with a survey of interests to new members as a first step toward getting them engaged in a meaningful way.
Very little, if any, of the work has to be done at church or at a certain time. The office staff will support this volunteer in any way they need by printing, mailing, etc. Does helping people get connected to the work of God at Vineville excite you? Then you could be what we need. If you want to talk about it, have questions, or an idea of somebody who would be perfect let me know.
