Galtier Society is seeking volunteers to serve as hosts at the Cathedral for PROJECT HOME

.
The Galtier Society is seeking volunteers to serve as hosts at the Cathedral for PROJECT HOME. Project Home is a program of the Saint Paul Area Council of Churches. It provides shelter for families temporarily without housing after the Ramsey County Family Service Center in Maplewood is at capacity. The Cathedral is scheduled to host families in need of overnight shelter during the month of January. The Galtier Society will be hosts on Saturday, January 8th and is in need of several shifts of volunteers:

~5:30-8:30 pm serving light snacks, playing with children, visiting with adults
~8:30 pm-6:30 am overnight
~6:30-9:30 am serving breakfast and light clean up

Since the majority of the guests are children, this is a wonderful opportunity for your older children to participate with you.

In order to be a participant, adults (over 18) must have completed VIRTUS training and submit to a background check. For information on when training sessions are being held, visit www.archspm.org
Please contact Vicki Sheaffer vsheaffer@hotmail.com by November 29th with volunteer interest and to receive an application for the background check.
