We’re Looking for Volunteers!
Do you have a heart for ministry and a passion to serve? There are many opportunities to get involved at White Rock Community Church, whether you enjoy working with kids, welcoming people, helping behind the scenes, using your creative or technical skills, or simply lending a hand where it’s needed.
Not sure where you fit? That’s okay! Fill out our quick volunteer survey and tell us a little about your interests and which services you are available for (9:15am, 11am or both).
We’ll connect with you and help find an opportunity that’s a great fit. No experience necessary. Training and support will be provided!

May Judah continue to grow surrounded by faith, love, prayer, and a church family cheering him on!

Children’s Ministry Needs You!
We are looking for adult Nursery volunteers for both our 9:15am and 11:00am services as we prepare for our new two-service schedule.
Our goal is to have a team of 4–5 adult volunteers in rotation for each service (8-10 adults in total through a month), so that serving is shared and no one is carrying too much of the load. Right now, we have just 2 adult Nursery Teacher volunteers, so we would love to welcome several more people to the team!
Our Nursery has some growing little ones who are getting ready for some extra loving arms, while giving their mamas an opportunity to refresh and enjoy the service.
Please connect with Deanna for more info, or click on the volunteer application button a little further down in this newsletter.
