What to Expect

Each month a group of SOTV members/friends goes to Global Health Ministries in Fridley to volunteer at their warehouse. We perform a variety of tasks and no experience is necessary. It is a fun and very important ministry that operates almost exclusively with volunteers. We welcome any and all who would like to join us either on a regular basis or whenever your schedule allows.

Want to be added to the Service Affinity Group email list? Email Julie

A reminder email will go out about 10 days before each volunteer date. Email Paula or Rolf if you plan on volunteering. Paula and Rolf can then plan accordingly. 

Covid Guidelines

Masks are not required for fully vaccinated volunteers.
