Help Wanted Section

Thanks to everyone who volunteers with our ministries! We believe that God provides each of us with gifts we are to use to build up his church. Talk to Pastor Ryan if you would like to explore how you can be involved in the opportunities below or in any other way.

Our Kindergarten to Grade 3 Sunday School class has two new teachers! It would be great to have one or two more to rotate through the weeks with them. Training will be given.

We would love to have more people running the sound booth during a worship service – either the sound board or the projection software, or both. We have posted some links to training videos for the sound board. Training videos for ProPresenter are also available.

We are looking for one or more people to plan lunches for meetings or other church events. Other volunteers will help do the work; this is just to do the planning. The office will look after communications so people can sign up to help out.

Wei He has done a beautiful job of decorating our sanctuary. But she will be stepping down later this year and we will need one or more people to take over. There are lots of decorating supplies available and a small budget for more.

If your children or youth (ages 2 to Grade 12) attend Sunday morning programs at Argyle, please register them if you haven’t already. You can do it online or on a paper form, available at the back of the sanctuary or from your child’s teacher. Note that if you have registered your child in a previous year, you only need to update the form, not fill it all in again. Thanks for helping us keep your children and young adults safe and appropriately cared for.

Opportunities to Serve

Our church joins First Baptist Church four times a year in preparing and serving lunches to hungry people downtown. As part of the Sandwich Outreach, we also donate useful items such as disposable razors, band-aids, soap, toothbrushes, laundry detergent, feminine hygiene supplies, toilet paper, warm mitts and socks, and so on. There is a donation bin at the back of the church to collect the items for next time. Thank you for your generosity.
