Since March, EMC volunteers have been helping to prepare dinner once a month at Perspectives, a family-focused St. Louis Park nonprofit. This summer we’re signed up to volunteer three Thursday nights in July (7/6, 7/13, and 7/20), 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m., in Ainsworth Park (7700 W. 28th Street).
As a volunteer, you might register participants; help out with basketball, kickball or yoga; set up crafts; hand out snacks; or clean up afterwards. In addition, on July 20, EMC is sponsoring the dinner, bringing about 150 all-beef hot dogs and buns plus fruit or chips for about 150 people.
EMC adults and kids can participate—in fact, all are welcome. Teen volunteers are particularly invited to volunteer on July 6; Pastor Oby promises an ice cream outing afterwards for teen volunteers. To sign up, call the office or send an email to emcucc@emcucc.org.
