Time and Talent Survey
The Time and Talent Survey affords an opportunity to formally designate areas of personal interest for parish involvement. The survey is provided to all new parishioners and is offered periodically to the full parish. The Time and Talent Survey is also available online. Simply print it, complete it, and turn it in to the parish office.

Learning About Volunteer Opportunities
The weekly parish bulletin and the Volunteer Opportunities page of this website provide current adult and youth volunteer opportunities in the parish. Another way to identify volunteer opportunities is to check the parish News Headlines or simply browse through the website. For example, there are opportunities to participate in the many liturgical ministries; to teach in the religious education program; or to serve on a committee for the annual parish festival. Help is always welcome whether you prefer working with children or youth-related programs or are more comfortable ministering to the elderly and homebound. Some people prefer helping with setup and cleanup for church activities, while others bring cookies and pastry for a bake sale. Be sure to check the Ministries/Organizations category of this website for information and contact persons for the various groups.

Suggesting New Activities
The parish council is open to ideas for additional programs and services. If you see a need and would like to help fill that need, contact any parish council member or the parish office.

Assisting With Special Donation Opportunities
The Parish Office of Stewardship and Development has a list of special donation opportunities -- very specific needs of the parish. For some of these, a donation of your skills or talents could help to lower the costs.
