Volunteer at Church

Running a church, serving a community, and helping a lot of people, takes help from a lot of people! If you're looking for ways to get involved and lend a hand at Elmhurst CRC, please contact us for how you can begin to explore the many opportunities to serve at Elmhurst CRC.

Servants On Standby (SOS)

SOS are people who want to be aware of the needs of others in our church and if possible provide resources, information, their time and talents and most importantly their prayers in order to help meet these needs.

Sunday Welcome All Teams (SWAT)

The SWAT Teams at Elmhurst CRC serve in a four- to six-week rotation covering both Sunday morning services. Each team is led by a team leader who schedules all volunteers and assures that all areas are staffed each week.

Sunday morning opportunities include: Door Greeters, Worship Center Ushers, Information Center Hosts, and Team Leaders.
