VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

How Can You Serve?

SLC volunteers are very important people! There are many areas in which you may give of your talents and time. Volunteering is a way to put into practice the spiritual principles you hear about on Sunday. It is truly an experience of “Love in Action” and the experience of sacred selfless service as a path to God. With Love in Action, our purpose is to:

  • Be an inspiring place to practice spiritual principles and learn to put love first.
  • Provide a safe, empowering environment for our spiritual community to identify, develop, and share their spiritual gifts in effective service.
  • Foster deep, profound friendships and experience the thrill of working together as team members in service to our spiritual community and to our world.
  • Provide effective, loving, and joyous support for all services, special events, and activities of our community.
  • To be an opening for God in every circumstance.
  • Have fun!

The gift of your time, talent, tithe or treasure can make an incredible difference to others in the SLC family and local community. Consider joining with us as we love, serve, and remember.

Overview of Volunteer Opportunities at SLC:

CHOIR: The SLC choir has been recognized on the "Sacramento's Best Church Choir" by Sacramento Magazine. A warm and loving community of singers, with all levels of experience, joining voices and hearts to offer inspirational music to all who come to hear. Join us at choir practice on Tuesdays at 7:00 p.m. at 24th & K.

eBAY FUNDRAISING: A dedicated team of “techies” who are focused on year-around fundraising using eBay. Great for individuals who like digital photography, researching, and use of technology, as well as being part of a weekly “hands-on” team.

GARDEN AND LANDSCAPE: Ministers to all by the beauty that they plant, weeding and nurturing the church grounds. Great for people who connect to God through the earth and through nature.

HEALTH AND WELLNESS: Come back later...

MUSIC AND ARTS: In addition to the SLC choir, the music ministry is making a difference in our community with the Soul Light Connection musicians, soloists, small ensembles, dances, drama and art events throughout the year.

OFFICE ASSISTANCE: Supports our staff by filing, typing, answering phones and handling miscellaneous projects on a weekly basis. If you love order and detail, this is the place for you.

PRAYER CHAPLAINS: Interested individuals in the Prayer Chaplain team are invited to attend an orientation session held one time per year (late summer/early fall). Pre-requisites for the Prayer Chaplain program include (1) membership at Spiritual Life Center, and (2) attendance at the SLC Prayer Class. If Spirit is leading you to this in-depth experience of spiritual family and consciousness, please answer your Divine call!

SUNDAY AUDIO/VISUAL: Not just duplicating tapes…spreading the word of God through our tape ministry and the sale of music and meditation CD’s. Great for people who enjoy music and the Sunday talks and who enjoy talking about both to congregants on Sunday after the celebration service.

SUNDAY GREETERS: Welcoming People “home” each week, this team opens doors and gives a warm greeting. Greeters quickly discover that for every hug they give, they get one back. A great way to start a Sunday morning.

SUNDAY HOSPITALITY: Responsible for creating the home-like atmosphere in Fellowship Hall. This team ministers to all who attend by lovingly setting up coffee, tea, and treats after each of the Sunday Celebration services each month.

SUNDAY SET UP AND CLEAN UP TEAMS: For Fellowship Hall, Special Services, and the Sound team. These teams allow members to serve who enjoy creating physical space for it all to happen.

SUNDAY YOUTH EDUCATION: We are always open to receiving enthusiastic and loving teachers/parents who want to serve in youth education program. These team members assist in the classrooms of the various age groups.

BE SURE TO CHECK: In addition to the volunteer opportunities listed above, there are other ministries available at Spiritual Life Center which enable newcomers to get connected. Be sure to check out the possibilities in the community outreach and small group ministries.
