SEAS hosts a homeless shelter here from Sunday to Sunday of Thanksgiving week. We provide for approximately 30 guests for seven days. Signup sheets are posted in the Social Hall beginning in early October with online registration also available.
The guests are given a place to sleep, eat, and enjoy activities provided by the generous gifts and talents of our parishioners. There are many positions available from drivers, food preparation, food delivery, entertainment, and night watch.
Coordinators: Liz Coon and Bob Treharne
SOS
All volunteers age 18 and over who will be on-site here at SEAS or who have any contact with our SOS guests must complete a Background Check Form and attend a Protecting God’s Children Workshop prior to participating in SOS.
ONLINE SIGNUP:You can sign up online from about 7 pm Sunday night until about 5 pm Friday night using the link provided below. Every Sunday night we only post online items that have not been signed up for. Any items you sign up for online will be visible online until the following Friday when they are added to the sheets laid out in the back of the Social Hall. (So if you sign up for an item online on a Monday, you will see it online until the following Friday but it will not be visible the following Monday as it is no longer an open item.)
If you would like a list of everything you signed up for, send your request to setonssos@wowway.com and we will email you a complete list.The online sign up is:
(note: the link will be updated and posted each Sunday night)There are tabs at the bottom of the page to move between the different categories of items (Breakfast, Lunch, Class Room, Laundry, Morning Driver, etc.) you can sign up for.
- Enter your Name, Phone, and Email Address next to any item you want to sign-up for.
- There is no “save”. Everything you type is automatically saved.
- When done, just close the web page.
Note: while it is possible to sign-up using a smart phone, many people have found it difficult given how large the spreadsheet is and how small the screen is.
Critical needs are Night Watch (either 10 pm to 3 am or 3 am to 8 am), Morning and Evening Drivers, Greeters and Minglers and especially help on Thanksgiving Day and the Saturday after.By coordinators Bob Treharne & Liz Coon
