Opportunities to Serve
Volunteers needed to assist with Small Repairs
We are looking for a handyman to assist one of our single moms in the Delmont area with some small repairs around her home.
Single Adult Ministry Program Team
We are looking for a few volunteers to help plan and coordinate social events, service projects and seminars for the singles ministry. Planning meetings are estimated to require approximately two hours a month. Additional commitment would vary depending on the nature and number of activities scheduled in any given month.
Single Adult Ministry Prayer Team
We are looking to form a prayer team of individuals who are willing to commit to praying individually as well as corporately regarding the needs of the ministry and those we serve on a regular basis. Possible meeting times could be Wednesday evenings during GAC regularly scheduled prayer service.
If you are interested in participating in the opportunities to serve listed above or if you have a need that you would like to share, please respond by e-mailing bussmr@zoominternet.net or by calling the church at 724-837-1122.

Drawing upon her own experience, as well as the lives of other single men and women who have been sold out to God, Nancy shares ten pratical commitments that are the pathway to true blessing for every Christian single.
Captivating: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul
By: John and Stasi Eldredge
