Growing Faith and Engaging Hearts
The rummage sale will be here soon. Start cleaning out your closets, basements, and garages to donate your gently used items. I’m looking for volunteers to help us on the drop-off dates on July 18th, 19th, and 20th from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. Please call me at 586-264-7970 (ext. 233) or email me at sacord@smdeporres.com if you can volunteer your time. You don’t have to be there the entire time.
You tell me when you’re available. We all have unique gifts, talents, and strengths that make us who we are. These qualities are what set us apart from others. It’s important to put them to good use and share them. Here are some benefits to using your God-given gifts and talents:
You might inspire someone else to use their own gifts and talents.
You might help bring fresh ideas and insights to different ministries.
When we work with others and share our gifts and talents, we can collaborate and build on each other’s strengths. This can lead to more successful outcomes and stronger
relationships.
Putting our gifts and talents to good use can help us build confidence in ourselves and our abilities. This can have a positive impact on all aspects of our lives.
How can you use your gifts and talents to volunteer at church?
