It takes a lot of people to make our Society function. Help from the congregation is always needed and members and friends are invited to volunteer at any time for committees and groups by speaking with the committee chairperson or group leader.
People interested in serving as elected officers or as appointees should speak to the President, the Minister, or a member of the Nominating Committee.
