Christmas Volunteer Opportunities!

share your joy this Christmas
The Gospel Rescue Mission's most exciting day of the year is December 25th when we celebrate Christmas! Each year, we serve delicious Christmas meals with people in the community who come in for some holiday cheer and do not want to be alone. We also deliver meals to people who daily receive meals from Meals on Wheels. The City's Meals on Wheels is closed on the holiday, but we have volunteer drivers who deliver meals to people who have asked for meals. We also have an annual Christmas Toy  Give-Away! Two years ago, we had 715 people come to receive gifts! For some people, these are the only Christmas presents they have.
Would you like to join in on the fun of giving  your time during Christmas?
We are in extreme need of volunteer drivers, volunteer servers in the dining hall and volunteers to help with the Christmas Toy Give-Away. Please call the Gospel Rescue Mission at 575-523-7727 to sign up to volunteer.
 
15 more volunteers are needed from 11:30-1:00 for the Christmas Toy Give-Away.
14 more drivers are needed for the meal delivery. Time: 10:15-about 1:00 pm.
About 12 more volunteers are needed for Christmas in the dining hall for different shifts. We need people who enjoy decorating to come early, people who enjoy cleaning up to come later, and lots of people to serve in between. Please call the Mission's desk open 24 hrs. to put your name on the volunteer list (575) 523-7727.
Thanks!
