Manakin’s Assisted-living Ministry, which takes Holy Communion to the residents of Spring Arbor and Southerland Place on the first Sunday of each month, is in need of one or more volunteers as it updates its service booklet. The booklet comprises prayers used during the Eucharist and all verses of approximately 50 hymns covering all church seasons. Volunteers would research church publishing or other online sites for the words of hymns and would type those hymns that cannot be reproduced. Anyone who can help with this or who knows of someone outside of the Manakin family who would be interested in donating time to the project, should contact the church office.

Aside from the service-booklet challenge, we are always looking for new members of our group. Contact the church office to find out how to get involved.
