Volunteering Opportunities

Volunteers are important to us!

Our dedicated volunteers are a vital part of the inspiration at Episcopal SeniorLife Communities! We welcome you to share your gifts and talents in the following ways:

1. Friendly visiting offers companionship and conversations.
2. Animal-loving residents welcome your calm and friendly pet(s).
3. Have a green thumb?  Assist in watering and pruning resident plants or help in our courtyard garden.
4. Have a love for organizing?  We have filing opportunities or assist residents in organizing their closets.
5. Prefer to recreate?  Join residents on community trips, host a social, call bingo, or lead an exercise or craft class.
6. Have a creative eye?  Take pictures of residents engaged in leisure activities.  Put together monthly collages.
7. Prefer to keep moving?  Escort residents to various appointments and activities within The Church Home.
8. If customer service appeals to you, join our gift shop.  Sell cards and gifts to residents, staff and families.

Assisting the Chaplain
If your interests include the spiritual growth within of our communities, we have several volunteer opportunities for you:

• Our Sunday ushers accompany residents to Chapel for services
• The Altar Guild prepares the altar for Holy Eucharist and worship
• Pastoral-care assistants work closely with the chaplain to minister to residents in all of our communities.

Volunteer Organizations

Opportunities to help abound as well in our volunteer organizations.

The Women’s Auxiliary has been serving the needs of Church Home residents for over 40 years. It is a service organization with a strong fundraising mission. Its members manage and operate the Tip Top Shoppe, a card and gift shop located in the main lobby of The Episcopal Church Home. Members also conduct bake sales, and other fundraisers throughout the year. Proceeds from all of these endeavors are returned to the Church Home to support programs and services for residents. Meetings are held monthly.
