Volunteer Application (Christmas Lunch at St Thomas') form
Thankyou for your interest to volunteer time and skills to support the Christmas Lunch at St Thomas' Anglican Church Burwood, to be held from 12 to 3.30 pm. This year WCC churches are hosting a special Christmas Lunch for International Deakin Students. We aim to have 90-95 guests attending. We are needing to gather about 25-30 volunteers from across WCC member churches. We need 12-15 ‘Relational’ Volunteers who will be placed on a table to be the host, helping to establish good conversation on their table and facilitate table games. We also need about 15 ‘Practical’ Volunteers to help with set up, kitchen, registration, general support and pack up.
We plan to host this Christmas Lunch event on Christmas Eve, Tuesday - 24th Dec 2024 from 12 - 3.30pm.
We are looking for volunteers from WCC member churches to sign up to support this event. It would be ideal to have volunteers helping from a wide variety of WCC churches.
We require two character references. If you would like to contact your referees
before
including their details below, we suggest you do that first, otherwise entered information may be lost if the form 'times-out'.
