Volunteer Opportunities

All of us bring God-given gifts, interests, and in some cases, passions, to the church.  It’s fun and fulfilling to “find your fit” and figure out how you can contribute to the life of the church and the world in a way that adds purpose, friendship, and joy to your life.  Pastor Sherri would love to get to know you better and suggest possibilities!  Feel free to contact her at sherrihausser@gmail.com.

 

Sunday Morning Ministries

Music

If you love to sing, you are welcome to join the Sleepy Hollow Presbyterian Church Singers, a relaxed, inclusive, contemporary, bluesy-folksy group, open to your creative input, led by Director of Music Alex Walker.  For more information, contact Alex.

 

Greeters

If friendliness is your gift, become a greeter!  Greeters arrive at church at 9:00 to light the candles and ready the sanctuary, and then they welcome people as they arrive at the front doors of the church.  What a good way to make friends!  Contact the church office to sign up.

 

Readers

Lay liturgists lead the congregation in prayer and read the Bible each week.  If you love to lead worship, contact the office to sign up.

 

Fellowship

Bakers and foodies, bring your delicious treats and put on a few pots of coffee for coffee hour!  Contact the church office to sign up.

 

Flower Guild and Liturgical Art

Our creative team of floral and multi-media artists beautify the sanctuary weekly, with outstanding special installations for special seasons of the year.  Inspire through beauty!  Contact the church office to sign up.
