Ushers
Ushers are always needed! For Sunday morning worship and special services, volunteers from the congregation assist the deacons by handing out bulletins. This is a simple, but very much appreciated, way to get more involved in The First Congregational Church of Ann Arbor. Contact David McNamara or the church office at (734) 662-1679 or by e-mail at office@fccannarbor.org.
Signing Up for Flowers
Most Sundays, the flowers on the communion table are provided by church members celebrating or remembering people and events in their lives. A notation is made in each week’s bulletin about what the flowers represent to the givers.
In December and at Easter, flowers are provided by the church. Church members donate money in honor of or in memory of loved ones.
Sign-up calendars are located in the Pilgrim Hall lobby each Sunday after the service.
Lay Readers
During each Sunday’s worship service, a member of the church leads the congregation in the Call to Worship, the Prayer of Invocation, and the Lord’s Prayer.
Sign-up calendars are located in the Pilgrim Hall lobby each Sunday after the service.
Volunteer with Our Children and Youth
There are many opportunities in our church school—being a teacher, a shepherd, or a during-the-week volunteer, helping get things ready for Sundays. There are Junior High and Senior High youth groups that need advisors and 8th graders who need mentors to walk with them through the Confirmation process.
Help with Social Events at the Church
The Activities and Fellowship Committee works throughout the year to sponsor fun social events at the church and in the area for our church family. They welcome helpers who can provide baked goods, help cook, and be a part of the set-up and clean-up of these events. And you will have fun doing it, too!
Be Involved Musically
Ministering through music has always played a big part in The First Congregational Church of Ann Arbor’s rich history. Opportunities include singing in one of the church choirs, playing in the FCC Orchestra, and being a member of the Chime Choir.
