Kitchen Tour
Our next “Know Your Church” event will take place immediately after service on Sunday, May 31st.
This month, we would love to introduce you to our kitchen. We will give a quick tour of the facility and share stories of the meals that are prepared and served there each week.
We will also answer questions and provide information for anyone that is interested in serving in the kitchen or bringing their group to prepare a meal.
If you have any questions in the meantime, reach out to Angelica (angelica@galvestoncentralchurch.com).

Shower Volunteers Needed
We need volunteers to help out in our shower area on Sundays and Tuesday mornings. Volunteers assist with setting up the check-in area, guiding community members to one of our five available showers, and tracking usage in the sign-in binder.
This is a low key, high impact way to make a difference in the lives of our friends. Sign up HERE or email Angelica (angelica@galvestoncentralchurch.com).

Meal Train for Deena Smiley
One of our sweet congregants, Deena Smiley, is having hip replacement surgery this week. She will be unable to do much for a few days so this gives us a chance to love her through meals.
Deena is one of the beloved voices in our choir and also the face that greets our community members as they head into the showers on Sunday mornings.
Please consider signing up HERE for a date on the meal train.

We Need Meals
Are you part of a group that wants to help us feed our hungry neighbors? Consider providing food for lunch on a Tuesday or Thursday or breakfast on a Sunday morning! On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we need volunteer groups to bring in lunch for about 120 people and serve it from 10:30am - noon. On Sunday mornings, we ask volunteers to bring breakfast for 50 people and serve at 9am. Sign up on the app or website. Contact Angelica (angelica@galvestoncentralchurch.com) for more details.
Tech Team Needs You!
Our tech team is looking to add a few folks to our tech team rotation. If you've ever ran slides, operated cameras, clicked a mouse, been in the same room as a computer, you're qualified! No experience is required! Reach out to Ezra (ezra@galvestoncentralchurch.com) to learn more about how you can help us keep our worship service running smoothly.
