S.O.S. Opportunities
We still have opportunities available to serve our homeless guests who arrive Sunday, May 20 for a week-long visit. Our most important needs now are:
Transportation!
We especially need both morning and evening drivers. We have many openings each day on both shifts. Morning shifts are between 5:00 and 8:00 a.m. transporting guests in your own car from St. Owen to the 12 Mile & Southfield area or to their jobs or schools. Evening shifts are available between 5:00 and 6:30 p.m. picking up our guests at S.O.S. at 12 Mile & Southfield and returning them to St. Owen. This is a one-time or multi-time opportunity.
Overnight supervisors!
We are looking for night owls! 9 p.m. – midnight & midnight – 6:00 a.m. Some sign up for both shifts and make a night of it. Curl up with a good book, a cup of coffee, and awaken our guests in the morning. Many openings available. We need at least one man/ one woman nightly.
Set-up / Tear down!
This is the perfect family event if you have teens. Let’s get the church in shape for our guests on Sun. May 20 from 1:15-3:00 p.m. as we unload mattresses and set up beds. Clean-up is Sun May 27 from 9:00-11:00 a.m. as we clean and sanitize beds & sheets and line mattresses and bedding up for pick-up.
Sign up on the board in the church vestibule or contact Karen Heuer at (24) 626-2320 or karen.heuer@stowen.org
