I Catching

Wow……..did that make you look????  Actually, what I’m interested in is “You Catching”. 

As Lay Leader, I sit in on a lot of teams.  On most of these teams there seems to be a common theme - a need for people; people to lead, to assist, to advise, to ACT.  On the other hand, as Lay Leader, I also get to talk to a myriad of congregation members, and guess what I hear ALL THE TIME????  “I don’t know where I belong”, “I want to be plugged into what’s going on”, “I’d like to help, but I don’t know who to contact or what the first step is”. 

After almost ten months of the Leadership Team reviewing ministries and their needs, I can tell you that if you’ve got a plug, there’s a socket to match it somewhere within Glen Mar.   For example, Jeff Carter is in need of someone with financial expertise to join his Finance Team.  Can you help?  Carrie Grams is always looking for an accompanist and someone to help out with administrative duties.  Would this interest you?  Pastor John needs assistance in Adult Christian Learning.  The list goes on and on.

If you are looking for an area to share your talents, please email me at LayLeader@GlenMarUMC.org or put a note in my mailbox which is located in the little hallway on the right after you enter the front doors.  I’ll be looking forward to hearing from you!!!
