The best way to meet people at CVUUS, and to discover how our values play out in real life, is to volunteer.

Contact the CVUUS office if you’d like to:

  • bring goodies for the after-service gathering each Sunday
  • be a greeter or usher at Sunday services
  • help maintain our beautiful building and grounds
  • see below for other ways to help — or suggest one!

Contact the CVUUS office if you’d like to serve on a committee. And please visit our signup sheets for one-off events looking for volunteers.
