Opportunities to Serve
"We serve for the joy of serving." - Charles Fillmore
As you are aware, volunteers from Unity Church of Dallas sort and
box donated items at the North Texas Food Bank in order to help
support feeding the hundreds of thousands of hungry North Texans it
currently serves. Thank you to all those who came out to help in
April!
Our next scheduled volunteer opportunity is on Saturday, May 8th.
This is the day of the Letter Carriers' Stamp Out Hunger food drive.
We will work from 6pm to 10pm to sort and box the
food brought in by letter carriers. Please notify us beforehand
at
fbmontgom@gmail.com if you'd like to participate. Children
over 10 years of age are welcome. Wear comfortable jeans or shorts, a
blue Unity t-shirt if you have one, and closed-toe shoes. Our
team will meet at 5:45pm in the lobby of the North Texas Food Bank,
4500 S. Cockrell Hill Road, Dallas, TX (214) 330-1396. A link to
a map to the food bank follows:

Family Ministries
Bless our kids, bless yourself. The number of families involved in
Children's Church grows every week. Your participation as a guardian,
greeter, baby hugger, or assistant teacher at the 11 o'clock service
would bless our children greatly, our church and - as with all giving -
you. We are looking for a once or twice a month commitment.
Please contact Rev. Kurt Condra
kurtcondra@unitydallas.org or Children's Church coordinator Debbie
Potaniec at
ucdkids@unitydallas.org or 972-233-7106 to learn more.
Habitat for Humanity
Are you good at painting?
Have you ever wanted to learn a little
carpentry? Habitat for Humanity begins its spring build
in February, and Unity Church of Dallas
is a major supporter. Come put your skills to
work for two great organizations.
Specific jobs are done on specific days, so come to the
Volunteer Center and choose the days
that fit your schedule or your interests.
Habitat is a
charitable organization that builds or remodels
homes for disadvantages families. UCD
supports it through the Richardson Area
Interfaith Habitat for Humanity. The family
who will eventually live in the house will be
working alongside you, adding sweat
equity to their own home. This is wonderfully
rewarding work, making the world a little better
for one family at a time.
