St. Paul Westlake is not unlike other churches when it comes to volunteers. The majority of activities, tasks, weekly service roles, and favorite seasonal events are made possible because of our trusted servants. They have a passion for a particular area and are filled with joy to participate, teach, and share. Many volunteers work behind the scenes and members aren’t even aware of them. That isn’t to say though that the role they fill isn’t significant. Truth be told, much wouldn’t happen without our dedicated volunteers.

God created us all with unique talents. We are grateful for that because volunteer roles are require a vast spectrum of talents. There truly is an opportunity for everyone to serve and share their specific talents. What about time, you may ask? Think you don’t have time to serve? You would be surprised. There are needs which require one hour or less a week or month. Really! Have a lot of time to give? We have a need for you too.

Here is our current list of volunteer needs. Click on the role listed and additional details will appear along with information for who to contact if you have questions about the role. Check back regularly because our list is always being updated.

*One day event; volunteers needed for planning and event day.

  • Greeters are positioned at the entry of our worship services to provide a warm welcome, ‘Hello’, and ‘How are you today?’ to everyone. If you enjoy talking and getting to know people, you’re perfect for this role! It only takes 15 minute prior to the start of service (whichever service your choose). Sign-up sheets are located on a bulletin board outside the sanctuary (for traditional services) and outside the activity center (for contemporary service). Simply sign up for one or more services that fit your schedule. If you have questions, contact the church office for more information.

    This role is flexible; some will choose a month of service, while others rotate as needed. Great for singles, couples, or the entire family!

  • Be a part of our worship services by reading the appointed Scriptures for that day. No experience needed, but you should be comfortable and able to stay composed in front of a crowd. Good voice projection is needed.

    This is primarily an adult role, however, Pastor may consider 8th - 12th graders. Volunteers rotate reading and may read every six weeks or so.

You will assist with handing out bulletins, pass the offering plates throughout the sanctuary, and aide in distributing communion. Contact the church office with questions and/or to get started.

  • Do you enjoy praying? Are you looking for a way to serve from home or from ‘behind the scenes?’ Consider being a part of our prayer team. Using our monthly Prayer Bulletin and an occasional Prayer Chain email, pray for those in need. Pastor Smith would like to speak with you if this is an area you feel led to serve in.

Once school is out for the summer, availability to work in the building is extremely flexible. Reach out to the church office if you are interested.
