Volunteers
Volunteering has always been an essential part of Pacific Coast Church as it surely must be with any organization teaching spiritual principles. Giving one’s time in selfless service, or seva as it is referred to in the Eastern Religions, is an enriching and enlightening experience. When we weave our way into the fabric of a spiritual organization in this way, we’re sure to feel more connected and more deeply involved. This truly makes for a supportive spiritual community dedicated to seeing God in each other. We can always use help in most areas and would love to hear from you. 831-372-1942

Genesis
Genesis is a group of members who meet with the BOS every 4th Sunday of the month to help define and implement the key initiatives for the PCC community. Genesis exists to provide loving support, vision, and guidance to Pacific Coast Church and its Board of Stewards, and to implement initiatives with particular emphasis on financial and spiritual growth. For more information please call David at 831-372-1942.

Audio
Dennis Murphy has designed and installed our sound system of which we’re very proud. We still need more volunteers for Sunday Morning Services and special events like Weddings and Memorial Services. Training is provided for setting up the system and monitoring the quality of sound while recording tapes or CDs. 831-372-1942

Fundraisers
We rely on annual fundraisers to meet our operating expenses. For the last few years, these have primarily been: Jazz From The Heart, The Human Race and The Harvest Celebration of Life’s Abundance. We appreciate volunteers for ticket selling, set-up, tear down, etc. To volunteer or donate to any of these events, please contact the church office at 831-372-1942.

Gardening
We have a large Oak tree on the front of the building and a beautiful Magnolia tree in the back garden so keeping up with falling leaves is almost a full time job in itself. There are many jobs from sweeping and tidying up to planting and pruning, and we appreciate all the help we can get. To volunteer, please contact Joanne Velman at 831-644-9782.

Hospitality
Greeting everyone on Sunday morning is an important role. A warm and friendly welcome can make a person’s day. In addition to greeting, we also need volunteers to be available after service to answer questions and make sure that first time visitors get questions answered and feel welcome. To volunteer, please contact Karla Bristow at 775-790-4007 or the church office at 831-372-1942.
