Balloon Fiesta Volunteers—Balloon Fiesta isn't until fall, but we need some key volunteers now.

You can contact Molly Minana at 298-6548 or Ron Reeves at 856-5040 if you have questions about the positions or wish to volunteer. 

Meals—Various SPC groups and individuals support our campus ministry by providing the meal for the evening Bible Study (15-20 very appreciative college students!) on the third Tuesday of each month. If you or your group can help this significant ministry, we have some gaps in our schedule. Please contact Kristin Thompson, kristint@sandiapres.org or 856-5040, if you can help. We need meal providers for March 20.

Extra Hands and Smiles Needed—Moms' Connection is looking for 1-2 volunteers/week to help look after the kiddos (age 6 months-5 years). Paid childcare workers provide some structure to the morning; they just need a few more hands and eyes on the little ones. Wednesdays, 9:00-11:30 a.m. Contact Diana Pooley, thenewpooleys[at]gmail[dot]com, if you're interested.

SPC’S Food Pantry—Gifts of Love Food Drive. Please join our Upward Basketball teams in bringing nonperishable food for SPC’s food pantry on Sunday, February 12. Proceeds benefit several local food banks. And as always,keep that food coming in every Sunday! Collection boxes are in Fellowship Hall and the FLC lobby. We give to four different food projects, one each week, so we need new supplies weekly:  hearty soups, rice, beans, powdered milk, canned fruit/vegetables/ meat, peanut butter, jam/jelly, un-sugared cereal, baby food/formula/cereal, pasta, chili, stew, juice, oatmeal, crackers, breakfast/granola bars, various tomato products/sauces.

Maximum Impact with Minimal Time Commitment—Wanted: People to provide a warm and friendly atmosphere for all who come to Sandia Presbyterian Church! This might involve answering questions (information provided), taking guests to the right locations, or—even more important—simply providing a friendly face. If this sounds like your kind of ministry, come join our Welcoming Team on Sunday mornings! Please contact Lisa Stebbins, 856-5040 x128, lisas@sandiapres.org.

Parish Nurses—The Parish Nurse Ministry helps Sandia's members with their healthcare needs by assessing their situations, guiding them to resources as appropriate, and educating them about their health. Registered Nurses from our congregation help with blood pressure screenings once a month, as well as providing hospital visits, phone visits, and home visits for our members. If you would like to refer one of our congregation members to the Parish Nurses or are interested in helping with this ministry, please call Betsy Everett, 828-0674.

Gifts of Hope—Gifts of Hope is an Albuquerque program that allows you to make a donation to over 28 of your favorite ministries in the name of a loved one any time of the year. Every cent of your donation goes to the designated charity. If you are deciding on a gift for a co-worker, teacher, parents, friends, etc., who don't need any more "things," consider a donation to one of the Gifts of Hope agencies in that person's name. It is a unique and thoughtful way to remember someone. All agencies have been suggested by participating churches. Please see "More Information" on this page for the catalog.

Medical Equipment—The Deacons are looking for medical equipment to distribute to those in need: wheelchairs, bathroom equipment, etc. If you have durable medical equipment to donate, used or new, please click here to provide information or call Will Nail at 917-2946.
