Volunteer Form

Raise the Roof Weekend - May 29, 30 & 31

Another exciting year of building is just around the corner and there are many ways in which you can be involved. We need lots of hands to help us build, we need hands to prepare meals, we need hands to give and we especially need hands to be folded in prayer. We will be partnering with Middletown UMC and Covenant UMC and will be working with Sonny Leonberger as our house leader.

Raise the Roof is the last weekend in May. After that we will continue to work on Fridays and Saturdays (excluding the weekend of July 4th).
 

If you want to be a part of this incredible ministry, please fill in the form below:

Please remember you must be at least 16 to work on the house and 18 to operate power tools.  But there are still ways for those under 16 to help out - keep reading!

WE WILL RAISE THE ROOF Thursday-Saturday, May 29, 30, & 31

So we can get as many volunteers as possible to share in the roof raising experience, we are asking that you sign up for one shift roof raising weekend.  And then be sure to come back out as we complete the house over the next few months.  Lunch will be provided at noon each day throughout the build and on roof raising weekend, breakfast will be served on both days starting at 7:30.

Date

AM Shift (8:00 – 12:30)

PM Shift (12:30 – 4:30)
