INTRODUCING FIRST UMC'S COVENANT CARE TEAM
Pastor Jerome believes we all have gifts to share, and the gift of hospitality can be used to glorify God.  It is important to let people know that they matter, and caring for a church family (and one another) goes beyond just visitation.  We are recruiting those church members who love helping others and would like to be part of our Covenant Care Team.  Do you love calling and checking on others when you might miss them in church Sunday morning?  Maybe you love cooking for someone who just had surgery recently?  Maybe cleaning is your jam, and you wouldn't mind being part of a small team to help clean if someone is temporarily disabled or about to move?  If you would like to hop on board, please contact Dr. Rev. Debra Rogosky (Ret.) (412-582-0525).  You may also email or call the church office to get your name on the list.  Just let us know what your passion is!
724-745-5771   OR  cbgfumc@yahoo.com.
​God bless you!


    JOB OPPORTUNITY:  First UMC is seeking an organist to provide music for our traditional worship service at 8:45 AM Sunday mornings, as well as other special events as needed.  For more information, please complete the information below.  Include your contact information and the best time to reach you in the comment section and submit.  Resumes may be emailed to cbgfumc@yahoo.com.   You may also contact the church office at 724-745-5771.

If you would be interested in serving in various areas of ministry, including but not limited to Communion Stewards, Covenant Care Team, Visitation Ministry, Youth Ministry, Nursery Workers, Welcome Committee, Lay Leadership, Counting Ministry, and Acolytes (children ages 5-15).  We also need a team of a few people to assist with the Outreach Ministry, especially someone with publicity and marketing experience to help get our events out in the community.  These are not hard or time consuming ministries, but they do require a commitment.   Please contact the office at 724-745-5771 for more information.

  • Cell Phones/accessories for the Domestic Violence Service (they re-set phones to 9-1-1 for emergencies)​

Every third Friday of the month we are blessed to be able to offer free community spaghetti dinners.  We are always in need of helpers in the kitchen, as well as servers.  High School students in need of volunteer hours are always welcome to come and get their hours in.  The dinner runs from 4-6 PM, so you would need to arrive no later than 3:30 PM to receive your assignments.  Please contact the church office at 724-745-5771 if you are interested.  Thank you, and God bless!
