Announcements

Open Door North Volunteers (or anyone who is considering),

Thank you for your grace & patience during this transition. Although the original start date was delayed, it is in progress! The delay is primarily due to waiting for shopping carts. If the fridge & freezer are not delivered by then, we can utilize the ones in kitchen until their arrival. Open Door has been working on making training easy and efficient for all involved, therefore it was decided that one training will take place on Sunday, February 8th following the late service. Lunch will be provided. There will be a verbal walk through and time to answer questions. I have seen how Open Door works their pantry, which is simple, nothing complex, easy to learn. If you are unable to make that date, no worry there will be on the job training! You can start volunteering anytime in the year… you can also volunteer at the main campus as well. 

Our new target date for opening is Tuesday, February 10th. The pantry will be open on Tuesdays 10am, volunteers should will be expected no later than 9:45am, with the last client taken at 3:30pm to close at 4pm. We will expand our days as Open Door North becomes more in demand, therefore those who are unable to volunteer on Tuesdays, you will have other opportunities in the future. Jackie, from Open Door, will be contacting individuals fortransporting the food & stocking. 

Please contact me if you will be attending the training on February 8th in order to plan accurately for lunch. Again, thank you all for your patience & your willingness to participate. We want to make Open Door North a success and sometimes success takes longer than we imagine...in God’s time, not ours!
