Your priorities will focus on maintaining neatness and cleanliness of the church buildings during the week, including dusting, sweeping and mopping of floors, cleaning bathrooms, window cleaning, emptying trash, and other duties as needed.
Due to COVID precautions, our Café is temporarily closed. We anticipate re-opening this ministry in the Fall of 2021.

First Time Guest Registration:
First Time Guest Registration is an area where parents can check their children into the Family Center with age appropriate environments to learn about Jesus. This will allow the parents to worship in the adult gathering without distractions. Once a family is checked into our system and issued a bar code, they will be able to use the self check-in stations on subsequent visits.

The team is also responsible for ensuring the restrooms are stocked before each gathering. Having an eye for details is key for this position. The Facilities Team tackles small projects on Saturdays to help maintain and keep the buildings and grounds in good condition.
There are very rare occasions when one of our guests may need medical assistance. If that need ever does arise, we need trained medical personnel to be available and accessible to assist those who are injured or become ill during weekend services or at major events.
The safety of our guests each week is a top priority. To ensure the safety of our guests, we have volunteers with experience in law enforcement and security to help ensure a safe and secure environment. These volunteers know exactly what to look for and how to handle a variety of situations that may occur. If you have a passion for keeping people safe this may be the perfect place for you.
Many of our guests are in search of healing and Prayer Point is a place where they can come share their struggles and receive prayer. Prayer Point volunteers are available to pray with people at the end of each gathering. You just need to have a listening ear and be able to share the gospel.
Community Group leaders are the backbone of Grace Point Church. Group Leaders help others grow in their relationship with Jesus through the context of a loving relationship. Group Leaders have an amazing opportunity to see Jesus working directly in the lives of people.
