It takes many hands to conduct a successful 10-week course, and volunteers are always appreciated. The following are just a few of the ways you can help. If any of these tasks sound like something you'd like to do, please consider volunteering for one Wednesday night, all ten, or as many as you can be available. Contact Lisa Anderson for more information.

Alpha Volunteer Opportunities

Childcare
If you are Protecting God's Children certified (or can take the class offered in January or February) please consider donating some time on Thursday evenings to help watch children so their parents can attend this course.

Set up tables
This requires someone who can arrive quite early to set up tables and chairs, arrange plates and silverware, and help in other ways as needed. The job requires some light lifting and attention to detail.

Meals
Fixing meals for Alpha can be either a solo act or a group activity. Some cooks are more comfortable planning and preparing an entire meal, while others enjoy working with a small group, each contributing a dish or dessert. Consider asking your small group to help with Alpha meals--it's a fun activity to share.

Busing Tables
Two or three volunteers are needed each week to help the guests and clear tables when the meals are finished. These volunteers also work in the kitchen after the meal to wash and put away dishes, and ensure the kitchen is back in order.

Pray
An intercessory team is assigned to each Alpha course. They meet on site and pray together for the duration of each night's class.

Please contact Jerry or Rose Fitzsimmons or email rfitzsimmons@allsaintswoodbridge.org to inquire about volunteering for Alpha.
