Hello Second Family,As Director of Volunteer Ministries, I get to see the most wonderful moments between you, as members, and those whom you serve. Unfortunately, I also see the deep needs that exist within our community, and it can be discouraging. But, I am filled with hope when I see 2PC members step up to help address these needs.

The Volunteer Ministries department is made up of me along with my assistant, Natasha Hughes, and exists to help connect the people of Second Presbyterian Church to what we consider our church’s core: worship, fellowship, and service. We want to help you serve our God by equipping you through discovery, development, and deployment of your gifts. Contact me today at 531-6177 and let me help you get plugged in!

Prayer partners pray especially during the time the mentor makes her visit with her participant mom.

Mentors Paired with at-risk expectant and new parents referred to their church’s One by One Ministry through the coordinator. Mentors make once-a-month visits with participant moms (and family) with contact occurring weekly or more often. During the visit, the mentors help moms build a baby book that contains valuable parenting information. Mentors provide encouragement, share Christ, serve as role models for their moms, and assist parents in developing an effective support network that fosters their parenting life skills and provides for family services if needed. The commitment is from the prenatal months through the first year of a baby’s life, an average of about 18 months.
