We have lots of volunteer opportunities! This page will feature our most up-to-date needs. You can learn more about our local global mission on the Missions page. Read more below about how you can help or email Pam Parmley and she can help you find a place. These opportunities may change as the situation changes, and those updates will be shared via The Echo and the News + Events page.
Compassion Closet: Clothing distribution at Feeding Friends and Family
Compassion Closet gives new or gently used clothes to our neighbors in need downtown.
Our closet is currently full. Our next drive will be for fall and winter coats – watch for info.
We also need help with sorting and distributing clothes.
You can drop by Mission Headquarters at the church to sort clothes each Tues/Thurs morning from 9-11am. You can also volunteer to work on Saturdays (2nd and 4th Saturdays 9:30-11am in the Parlor) and Thursdays (3rd and 5th at 4pm) for clothing distribution.
English as a Second Language Ministry
Our church offers ESL classes! We have helped hundreds of English language learners from dozens of different countries develop valuable communication skills. You don’t need teaching experience or knowledge of languages to help. Just a willing spirit and free time on Wednesday nights. If you’re interested in helping with our upcoming Fall semester, click here to email Pastor Ed. Or click here to learn more about our ESL ministry.
Each week we pack and distribute lunches for our unsheltered neighbors in downtown McKinney. You can help in several ways! The easiest (and most needed way) is to sign up to purchase food. CLICK HERE for the list of needs. Bring the food to the church ASAP to be packed. You can also help pack the lunches on Wednesdays at 11 in the Conference Room. Donations can also be made with “homeless” as the memo to go toward the purchase of Gatorades, sacks, etc. Email Caitlin for more information.
