Volunteer to be a "Worship Friend"

Fairhope Health and Rehab Center has contacted our Church seeking volunteers to help residents from the facility to attend a worship service on the 3rd Sunday of each month. A staff member from the facility will accompany all volunteers. The volunteer will meet at the facility 30 minutes prior to our worship service to walk with them to church, sit with them and return them to the facility once service is over. Depending upon the volunteers, a decision will be made which service times the residents will attend, either 8:30 am or 11:00 am.  The volunteer will be contacted by the facility person, McCalla Steele to schedule your time to serve.  If you would like to volunteer and learn more contact Dr. Ann Pearson in the church office and she can give you more information.
