It is for those with behaviors that are hard for them to quit. In addition to studying scriptures that will bring us closer to the Savior, we seek to understand the 12-step recovery process.

II. Other Needs

(These are things in the Church for members who feel led to meet these needs. These tasks may not be essential however they are helpful)

  • New Children’s Sunday School Teachers: We are looking for a few who could step up and teach the young kids on Sundays from 9:30-10:15 am. (Background check is necessary) Talk to pastor or elder if interested.

  • Winter Plowing: We have a need this winter for someone who can plow the church parking lot/loop. We have been blessed in the past by those who gave time effort and resources to do this which was a major blessing - to them Thank You! However, they will no longer be able to do that this winter. Talk with an elder or Pastor if interested.

  • Church “Photographer”: A designated person(s) to take photos at Church gatherings, services, and baptisms, nothing fancy needed just one or two pictures that can be uploaded to our Facebook or used on our website. Requirements: A phone with a good camera, a cheery attitude, and attendance to most Church events- talk to Pastor

  • Video editing: If someone is gifted and willing and experienced with video editing, we would love to clean up our future sermon uploads to our YouTube channel. Currently, they are enough but if someone has the desire, time, and effort to make them more presentable that would be a blessing. - talk to Pastor

  • Secretary position available: Currently the task of secretary has been absorbed by several individuals who have other roles/responsibilities in the Church. As of now, it is not an immediate need but if someone is willing or curious talk to the pastor or an elder.

    Each church member is responsible for the cleaning of the church building sometime within the dates they are assigned. This includes communicating what specific day one is cleaning so the doors can be unlocked.

    If one is unavailable for the dates they are assigned they may ask another member who is willing to either cover for them or to swap cleaning dates. If there is no one available to cover or swap the responsibility remains with the initially assigned individual to see that the church is cleaned. (Reach out to an elder ASAP if this is the case as we will see if we can help)

    A cleaning guide will be made available.

    Reach out to Debbie for any cleaning supply needs: 715 556 0309

    Reach out to Mike Schultz for any concerns about the building: 715 558 0884
