The Ruth House is in need of weekend VOLUNTEER house parents (women) who are willing to stay with the ladies from Friday evening until Sunday afternoon, and just be there with them, and for them. It is an amazing opportunity for you to sow into these ladies lives the good things that God has done in your life and to just be a blessing to them! Commitment would only be one weekend per month, or even every other month. We also are looking for someone who can come to family recovery on the second and 4th Friday evenings of the month, and do some organized activities with the visiting children so that the family and resident can have time to work on their family relationships in their recovery. Time would be from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. Please contact Charmet Chester for details and if you're interested. This is a great way to invest in these ladies lives, and to participate in their addiction recovery program.
There is need for people who speak Spanish,
so if we have
Spanish-speaking sisters
who are available to volunteer, we need them.
Please contact Sister Stephanie Daniels
at daniels@justserve.org.
