parking lot committee
- Do you like to be outside?
- Do you have a nice smile under that mask?
- Is fluorescent orange one of your favorite colors?
- And most importantly, do you enjoy helping others?
If you said, “YES!” to any of these questions, then we have an opportunity for you! Come be a part of the St. Therese Parking Lot Committee!
If you believe that hospitality starts the minute you enter the campus,
then we need you!
The Parking Lot Greeters will provide stewardship and hospitality as well as safety to our parishioners and visitors. Parking Lot Greeters will serve in welcoming people in the parking lot, helping with traffic flow, providing a smile and an umbrella on a rainy day.
Did you know that the first impression of our church actually happens between the white lines on the pavement? You may be the first and last smile a parishioner sees while on our campus.
Requirements: 18 to 99 years young, smile and fun outlook on life, a desire to be involved, must look good in fluorescent orange vest! Curious? Want to learn more? Join us for a Zoom meeting:
Or contact Mollie Anderson at 704-664-3992, ext 2117 or manderson@sainttherese.net - Do you like to be outside?

If you are an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion and have at least one day a month to share Christ with someone who cannot attend Mass with our faith community at St. Therese, the Homebound Ministry would welcome you!This Ministry provides a personal presence, prayer and the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist to parishioners who are homebound, sick, or residents of nursing homes or assisted living facilities.Our purpose in this ministry is to provide a connection to those that cannot attend Mass by bringing them Holy Communion either following Sunday Mass, weekday morning Mass or at a time more convenient to both the Minister and the homebound. If you have even one day a month that you can give to this ministry it would be a blessing.For more information or to volunteer for this very important ministry:Contact: Barbara Smith at bobbijs1031@gmail.com
