Coffee Hour: Donations of food are needed for Coffee Hour. Be one of the 4 people who brings food each Sunday. Your donation does not have to be homemade. Twenty cookies or slices of coffee cake, a bowl of fruit, or cheese and crackers would do.
If you drop off your donation in the kitchen before the service, the sexton will do the rest! Please sign up on the clipboard at Coffee Hour or contact Barbara Oder if you could help.
Fun Raising: Please join us on May 11 & June 1 in the Emmanuel Room after Coffee Hour to brainstorm about how Emmanuelites might have some more fun together in the coming months.
Green Team: We are preparing
to landscape Emmanuel's frontage on Newbury Street. We welcome
anyone who can help with design, soliciting donations of landscaping
services, preparing the beds, planting, and maintenance of our
garden. Please contact Nancy Mueller or email us for
more information.
Hospice Care: Volunteers
are need to visit with patients for an hour a week. The end of
life can be a lonely time or a time filled with reminiscence,
laughter and peace. Please call West River Care at 781-707-9586
and ask for Alice Hutter, Volunteer Coordinator.
History & Archives: We are looking for memories,
photographs, and newspaper announcements from couples married at
Emmanuel, members of wedding parties and their families. As we've found it fun and instructive to talk with visitors and parishioners, we are interested in your recollections. Please contact our Parish Historian, Mary Chitty.
Join a Commission.
Other Opportunities: If you're interested in volunteering for a short-term or ongoing activity, please contact Penny Lane, chair of the Volunteer Commission, who will match your skills and wishes with Emmanuel's needs. Please email her if you could help or if you want to enlist others for a project.
