Linda O'Rear - Volunteering Is Connecting

As part of the giving intention team, we are always finding new and creative ways to appreciate the members of our community. Volunteering has taught me the value of knowing and seeing our spiritual family. I love to quietly work behind the scenes to facilitate an event. Volunteering for me is connecting and connecting fills me with so much love for the Center and even beyond the Center.

Volunteering brings people together who share a common goal of making a positive impact on the world. This collective effort creates a sense of community and belonging, providing a supportive and nurturing environment. By working alongside like-minded individuals, we develop meaningful relationships and friendships, expanding our social circles and forging connections that can enrich our lives. Being part of a community that shares our values and aspirations can contribute to a profound sense of spiritual fulfillment.

What I Love About Being a Volunteer - Mary Ann Granieri

"I’ve always loved using my talents to contribute in some way to my community. It brings me a sense of satisfaction and well-being to help create, nurture, and sustain a healthy spiritual community that in turn supports and sustains so many others, individually as well as those in our local and global communities. Volunteering at the Center has allowed me to meet new people in a way that’s been easy and fun. A spirit of camaraderie easily develops as we collaborate on a common goal. I’ve developed dear friendships with some of the people I’ve met volunteering. It’s also created an opportunity to work with and get to know many of the talented and hard-working staff and ministers who are so dedicated to this Center. My appreciation for CSLSR and for everyone who contributes to it has grown immensely as I’ve glimpsed a bit of what goes on behind the scenes. As I’ve been able to contribute and create by volunteering, I’ve also received much. I feel truly seen, valued, and appreciated....

What I Love About Being a Volunteer - Bette Smith

"I love volunteering at the Center because I get so much in return. I meet new and interesting people and connect with people I haven’t seen in years. I like working behind the scenes so I help Allan Yeager with some parts of the website which is a job I can do from home. I work in the bookstore where I’m surrounded by beautiful items for sale. And I love teaching classes because I have benefited so much from all the classes I’ve taken.  Coming to the Center for over twenty five years has changed my life. I love giving back my beloved Center that has fed me and helped me grow." -Bette Smith
