OPPORTUNITIES
Volunteers are needed to pick up food from Publix and Kroger and then deliver to The Place. We need a few volunteers to add to the "Regulars and Sub List" so we can maintain our relationships with Publix and Kroger markets.
If you have 1 hour to 1-1/2 hours free in the morning perhaps you could help us out! Please contact Deborah Ross with your contact information and the day(s) you would be interested in assisting. Currently, we need folks primarily on Thursday to pick up several stores. It can be anytime between 8:00 and 10:00. If you want to be on the sub list for any day of the week, you can let Deborah know that as well.
We pick up from Laurel Springs Publix, the Publix just off exit 14, Kroger Sharon Rd, Kroger at Castleberry/Bethelview, and Green's Corner Kroger at Bethelview/20. Maybe you live near and shop at one of these--it could be an excellent opportunity for you to serve if you have just a short window of time. All of these are within 15-25 minutes of The Place.
Please contact Deborah at deborah@theplaceofforsyth.org with details and how to get started! Thanks so much.
Do you attend the late service? If so, Community Outreach could use your help passing out our orange food bags to people leaving after the second service on October 2 and October 9. Contact Sharon Looney (sharonl@perimeter.org) for more information.
Help with childcare on Saturday mornings so Moms can attend Bible Study. For more information visit cityofrefugeatl.org.

Group Facilitators: Come to the home and teach groups such as sewing, music, dance, tutor students for the GED, etc. Meal Volunteers: Bring a meal or bring ingredients to cook with the participants! Celebration Volunteers: These volunteers serve on an as-needed basis to help make birthdays, holidays, graduations, etc. special for participants by donating decorations, cakes/food, plan parties and activities. Box Buddies: Assemble boxes that provide much needed support for daily living and boost encouragement. These can be birthday boxes, household item boxes, or encouragement boxes.
