Volunteers can sign up at the Habitat table on Sunday mornings in September or at mtbethel.org/habitat.

Who will feed the Habitat volunteers while they are building? Perhaps your business, small group, Bible study or Sunday school class? Each of those days there are from 15-30 volunteers we need to feed well so they can do the work we are called to do. So if you don't think you can't paint or hold a hammer, you can be a part of this incredible mission by serving those who can. Please call Sue Stone at 770-977-3273 to sign up for your date.

Each week, Mt. Bethel's Flower Ministry takes the flowers that are donated for our Sunday Service and divides them into 4 or 5 smaller arrangements. These arrangements are then delivered to members of the church who may need a bit of a "pick-me-up." This is a small, quiet ministry that has touched so many families. We are looking for a few more volunteers to join in. Requirements are: time on Mondays once a month and a desire to bring a little joy (and flowers) to others. Please contact Kibbie Jones at 678-560-7230 to volunteer or for more information.

Join an existing prayer group for Murdock, Timber Ridge, Dodgen, Pope OR start a new one for Dickerson, Shallowford Falls, Addison, etc. MIT groups are specific to YOUR child's public or private elementary, middle or high school praying the four steps of prayer:  Praise, Confession, Thanksgiving, Intercession.
