serve

Jesus came to serve, not to be served, and so we follow him through service. It's as simple as that! We hope you find a meaningful way to serve with us on Sundays and in our community.

IN OUR CHURCH

The church is a family, and there are plenty of chores to do! One of the best ways to plug in at Grace Marin is by letting us put you to work. Find a need that fits who you are and join us!

CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
We are always in need of teachers and class assistants for our various Grace Kids Sunday school classes. It is one of the highest privileges to participate in Jesus' love and welcome of our little ones. If you have experience in this field or would like to learn more about what it would take to be a Children's Ministry volunteer, please contact Aubin.

STUDENT MINISTRY
Volunteering during Sunday school and at special events provides a wonderful opportunity to build relationships with our students and to remind them that they are a vital part of our church community. An application and screening process is required. If you are interested in participating in Student Ministry, please contact Jeremiah.

WELCOME TEAM
Our Welcome Team executes the privileged task of being the tangible, personal welcome of Christ to everyone who comes through the doors at Grace Marin. Greeting involves handing out worship folders, ushering people to open seats, and being attentive during the entire worship service to direct and help folks as needed. Please contact Tina.

SUNDAY HOSPITALITY TEAMS
Our teams provide refreshments before and after the worship service on Sunday mornings. This gesture of gracious hospitality is an extension of community and connection that is key to being the welcoming body of Jesus. Team members arrive prior to worship to set up and stay after fellowship time is over to clean up. Please contact Tina.

MUSIC AND TECH
Do you have experience as a vocalist or an accompanist? Perhaps you have an interest in learning how to operate the sound board, visuals, and live stream during worship services. If you’d like to find out more about one of these teams, please contact our Director of Music, Maryanne.

IN OUR COMMUNITY

Our Mercy Ministry partners with various organizations in Marin who are engaged in service that reflects God's desires for human flourishing. We work side by side with these organizations to care for youth, foster kids, women and families, immigrants, and those experiencing homelessness and material poverty. Here are some of the groups we work with:

Marin Healthy Youth Partnership (addressing youth substance abuse with support and community)
Marin Foster Care (supporting foster families as they care for children)
Gilead House (providing a home and empowering homeless single moms and their children as they pursue financial stability and self-reliance)
Marin Pregnancy Clinic (state-licensed clinic providing prenatal care and guidance)
Ritter Center, Homeward Bound, St. Vincent de Paul, SF/Marin Food Bank, Salvation Army (providing shelter/housing, healthcare, and food relief for people experiencing homelessness)

Please contact Matt if you would like more information on serving in one or more of these ministry areas.
