                                    Opportunities to Get Involved at Shelby Alliance


                                    There are two ways to view the ministries of a church.  We can view them as a menu of options available to us for our benefit, or we can view them as a menu of options to serve others for their benefit.  Truth is, we all need to be involved in both sides of ministry!

                                    We want to encourage everyone who calls our church home to participate in both sides of ministry.
                                      We know that sometimes its hard to figure out what opportunities are available or where you might fit in.  We recognize this and want to make opportunities clear for people to step up and say, "I can do that!"

                                    Here is a list of tasks and ministries that may be a place where you can plug in. If one or more of these opportunities seem to be where God is leading you to get involved, email the church secretary or stop by the office and let us know you are willing to serve.
