We Love Our Volunteers!

There are so many people at CSLGranada Hills, who give so lovingly of their time, talent and treasure. Meg Donohue is Seva Coordinator this year and has gathered together a team who contribute each Sunday morning (and evening and Wednesday and at the office, etc., etc., etc.). When something is needed, someone is there.

Rev. Betsy Haas Hartman recently volunteered to be Fund Raising Chair (BIG Job!). Her first efforts are (1) The Wolf Wisdom workshop on September 19th; (2) A drawing for a week in Lake Tahoe (lovingly donated by Glenn and Jeannie Starrett) with a second prize of two nights at a condo (lovingly donated by Nancy Walper). We can only guess at what she'll come up with next.

From John Sparks who does things like replace air conditioning filters and water faucet filters (yes, we have filtered water in the kitchen) to Sue Scheid and Betty Lou Mayer who put together the Sunday programs; from the Sunday ushers and greeters to the accredited class instructors; from Rev. Tricia Klink who works with the T'ween team teachers to Rev. Nancy Woods who works with the Teen teachers; from the Teens themselves who put on a fabulous pancake breakfast every fourth Sunday; from Michael Carlin who heads the audio/visual volunteers to the Visioning team; we have a well-run team of people on whom we can rely.

If you have ever wondered how you can help, speak to Meg Donohue. Right now, she is looking for someone who can coordinate people to provide refreshments on Sunday mornings. Like to shop? Like to make menus? Like to clean up kitchens? This may be the job for you. Our folks will LOVE you!
