Oxford Food Shelf

To help alleviate the problem of over/under staffing of volunteers and to encourage an ecumenical spirit, the method for signing up will change. Churches will no longer be responsible for an entire month of volunteers. Instead, anyone wishing to volunteer is asked to fill out the form in the narthex to indicate when they will be available and their preferred jobs. A schedule will be developed and distributed to all volunteers. Please consider signing up to help! If you have any questions feel free to contact Laurie Larson.
