Fort Worth Volunteers @ SEAS
October 18 @ 9:30 am – 12:00 pm CDT
NOTE: This service event is open to anyone that is Safe Environment trained in Fort Worth diocese. If the RSVP button is not available, that means the registrations have closed, sorry. Also, you will be asked to not attend if you have not signed up for the event and are not in the SE database.
Join us for a half day to serve the poorest of the poor in the spirit of Mother Teresa. We will begin with fellowship, prayer, and the orientation, and then we separate into smaller groups to go comfort the elderly at nursing homes, feed the homeless on the streets, help the Missionaries of Charity sisters in assisting low income families or homeless pregnant women, work at a community garden, make lunch and serve at soup kitchens, and/or organize items at food pantries.
Most weeks, we continue the fellowship by grabbing lunch together (optional) after serving.
This is a family friendly event, so children of all ages are welcome. We encourage everyone to RSVP here, so we can let the places of service know how many people to expect. Like Mother Teresa said, “let us do something beautiful for God.”
