Listed below are the most current needs, urgent openings, and lofty dreams that St. Peter’s has for time, tithe, or talent. Some of them are one-time gifts and others are ongoing volunteer commitments. It is a bit of a service buffet.
If you find yourself wondering how you can get involved today, please check back here to see what the Vestry has identified as our most emergent needs. If you are interested in any of these opportunities, please contact a member of the Vestry or clergy.
TIME
Outdoor lighting angel – Our Junior Warden is looking for a volunteer to work with him on care and maintenance of our new beautiful outdoor lighting. The time commitment is as needed and will involve occasionally walking the property to make sure the lights are functional and coordination with the Jr. Warden and light installers to make repairs and replacements as needed.
Geek Guild A/V Operator – You do not have to be a tech wizard to help! Exciting changes are coming to our ability to live stream and share our worship services digitally. This will extend our reach to those who are not able to join us in person and allow us to have a library of our worship services to share with those seeking a new spiritual home. This position requires availability at 10 am services to operate the equipment. You will be trained on how to use the equipment. If you are interested, please contact the Geek Guild at geeks@stpeterscarson.city.
TALENT
Grant Researcher / Writer – The historic nature of our church buildings may afford us opportunities for grants through historic preservation or other resources. If you have experience with researching and writing grants for non-profit fundraising purposes, we would love to have your expertise. The time commitment will vary depending upon the grants identified that we may be eligible for.
TITHE
Amazon Shopping – While you are doing your Amazon shopping, you can peek at our wish list and see if there are a few things you may wish to add to your cart. It ships directly to the church and is easy as one-click shopping. Just click here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2VYT46JOCFVWO?ref_=wl_share
House – Yes, this is a BIG ask, but if we don’t ask, it certainly won’t ever happen. If you have a house and no one to leave it to, or you know someone who has a house they would be willing to donate to St. Peter’s it could become an incredible resource for the church. It could become a source of rental income, or it could become a (more modern) Rectory, solving the lack of housing for our clergy long into the future.
Legacy planning – If you are doing estate planning, we ask you to consider St. Peter’s in your final wishes. This can be in the form of a life insurance policy that names St. Peter’s as beneficiary, or naming St. Peter’s as a direct beneficiary in your estate. Your gift will live on in the joyful community of the generations to come.
OTHER Good Deeds
Carson City Landfill Vouchers – Customers of Waste Management in Carson City are typically given one landfill dump voucher per year. If you have received your landfill voucher and are not planning to use it, please donate it to St. Peter’s for our clean up efforts.
