Eugene Faith Center

Description

The Bloodmobile is coming to Eugene Faith Center. This is a great way to lend a hand, or rather an “arm,” and give to others in need. Let’s roll up our sleeves together and donate the gift of life! Sign up at the Information Center on May 27 or June 3.

This is a fun-loving group meeting to help kids go to summer camp! Participants will make greeting cards, half to keep and half to donate back to the church. These cards will be sold in the Resource Center and the proceeds will help provide summer camp scholarships. Have fun while helping kids!

This volunteer group provides childcare for various church events and classes other than regular church service times. If you have a heart for kids and some time to give, see if this group is for you. You will be blessed as you become a blessing to others.

Join us for our first spring in the garden! We are starting seedlings indoors and can provide soil and seeds to anyone willing to tend them. We will plant potatoes in late March and get some other early crops such as radishes going also. Call Lindsey Foltz if you would like to be involved and to see what is on the schedule each week. Kids are welcome and no gardening experience is required.

These teams bring comfort and a caring touch when they visit people who are in the hospital or recovering from a hospital stay in a care facility. Sometimes a quick visit, a prayer or even a friendly smile can be helpful in the healing process.

Hospital Visitation
If you or someone you know is going into the hospital and would like a visit from a member of our Visitation Team, please let the church office or Dennis and Kathy Snyder know, so one of our hospital ministers can drop by.

HST: Health and Safety Team
Jim Thomas, 541-686-9244
Overseeing the safety and well-being of every person on the Eugene Faith Center campus is a high priority. The Health and Safety Team needs those interested in giving of their time and effort including people with law enforcement or security backgrounds and medical personnel such as doctors, nurses, firefighters, EMT’s and health workers. Help is needed patrolling our parking lots and general campus during all services. Two-way radios are provided. Medical personnel are needed to assist in medical situations until emergency assistance arrives. This team is on a rotating basis so no one serves more than one or two services per month. The HST is a great way to serve the needs of our congregation by using your gifts and skills to keep people safe and healthy.

Information Center
Shelly Williams, 541-686-9244
The Information Center in the Atrium is an important contact point for people to find out about classes, upcoming events and youth and children’s activities.

Team members are also needed to be greeters at the Atrium doors.
