As I listened to Brian talk about volunteering and stepping up this weekend, I was thinking about what I volunteer for here at Vineyard Church North Phoenix. Currently, I lead a Care Group and oversee the Annual Woman’s Conference. Then I was pondering how I got into doing these things I enjoy so much.
Leading a Care Group, started by attending small groups. Then one of the groups I was attending was looking for a host home and I hosted a Care Group at my house for a year or so. After that, I started to take the leadership classes to lead a care group and have been leading ever since and truly enjoy “doing life” with the women in my care group.
Overseeing the conference, started when I had the job of ”running the PowerPoint” for the conference. I ran the PowerPoint for a year or two at the conference since I was running it for a Sunday morning service. Then I was asked to oversee some parts of the conference and be on the core team. I oversaw parts of the conference for a number of years and each year it seemed I was entrusted with a few more things to take care of. Then one day Thora asked me if I would like to oversee the whole conference. I said “yes” and now I love overseeing the whole process: behind the scenes, seeing all the parts come together, and experiencing God touch woman’s lives.
So what has your road been to the positions you volunteer for here at VCNP?
Or if you aren’t volunteering, where would you like to start?
Blessings,
Susan
