FLOOD RECOVERY CONTINUES Volunteer Opportunities Available |
| . |
Church World Service is sponsoring an ecumenical
build in Cedar Rapids from mid-April
through May. Each denomination is working to
recruit groups of 15-20 from all over to participate
in the build. Josh Baird, Associate Director
of Disciples Volunteering, and Brandon Gilvin,
Associate Director of Week of Compassion
are involved in the planning committee for this
build. They are specifically recruiting volunteers
to come for the first 3 weeks of
May. Most of the work will be done in
the neighborhoods down near Cedar Christian
Church.
Marion Christian Church is planning to continue to host volunteer
groups coming in to help with flood recovery.
We already have our first reservation
from a group in Kansas the first week in
May for the ecumenical build. We have been
asked if we can provide one evening meal a
week for the month of May, just like we did
last year for the “Alternative Spring
Break” (efforts that were made on Cedar
Christian Church). If any individuals or
groups would like to take up this challenge to
help prepare and serve a meal, one evening a
week for 4 weeks, please contact me or the
Church office. MCC did an excellent job last
year and I received many very positive comments
and thanks from the volunteers who
came and enjoyed our hospitality. As May is
not very far away, please let us know if you can
help so we can start planning.
If anyone would like to join in the special build,
you can also let me know. I am planning on
taking a few days vacation in May to help out
with the build. I am sure that if you would like
to join in with any of the volunteer groups we
host this year, to go and work with them, they
would welcome you. The more the merrier! Trying to stay on God’s path, one step at a
time. Darrell Boatwright
