Ongoing Needs:
- Community Kids Ministry – fun but structured program with children while their moms attend group meetings (Summer: Monday evenings. Rest of year: Monday evenings & 2nd Saturdays) • Provide simple meals for kids/moms on Monday nights 5:15 to 7:15 pm (an important need and a great group service project)
- Childcare when moms are meeting one-on-one with staff (hours vary but often Mondays and Wednesdays 4:30-7:30pm)
- Mentoring moms for our Women of Courage outreach program
- Administrative help with various tasks, such as adding new email addresses into our database.
- Maintenance of FLS grounds, such as mowing grass, weeding, leaf raking, and general cleaning – a great group opportunity! • Cleaning in the Main House and occasionally in vacated apartments
- Website and social media content development. Make FLS better known!
- Board members invested in the growth of FLS
- Interior Designers – help us beautify various spaces on our campus
- Master Gardeners (or anyone with a green thumb) – Help us better plan our gardens and lovely grounds
- Have another skill you’d like to share? We can put all your talents to use!
