Volunteer

Serve the Lord with gladness. Psalm 100:2

MANY HANDS. ONE MISSION.

At SGMC, serving is part of our calling. Every act of service—large or small—helps people follow our mission to love God, love people, and make disciples. Volunteers have been the heart of SGMC since its beginning, and we are grateful for each one.
