Our Aim: To have the Devonport Churches unite in serving our city, by offering peace, joy and kindness during the busy weekends leading up to Christmas.

We are hoping to have up to 50 volunteers representing the Devonport Churches in serving!

Volunteers will all need to register and provide their current ‘Working With Vulnerable People’ card.  A clearly identifiable ‘Here to Serve’ vest must be worn while serving. These will be provided.

Further details will be provided to those who express interest.

Gift Wrapping:

Free gift wrapping will be offered in the Rooke Street Mall and outside Kmart on both Saturday’s.

If you wish to serve at the gift wrapping stations, you will require a reasonable standard of wrapping skill to manage gifts of all shapes and sizes!

When you have submitted your interest in gift wrapping, someone will contact you regarding which of the two locations you might want to serve at.

Set-Up & Pack-Up:

Arguably one of the most important roles to ensure gift wrapping sessions run smoothly!

We need 1-2 volunteers to commit to set-up AND pack-up on each Saturday.

Please be ready to handle items with care, have a registered vehicle and current drivers license – to transport all equipment required for gift wrapping.

Gift of Caring:

We will have baked goods, and a coffee voucher ready for orders, to be hand delivered to businesses around Devonport.

A friendly smile, a sensitivity to the busy work place, and a happy disposition will be required!

Let’s take the time to say hello & wish a Merry Christmas to those around us.

There is a morning and afternoon option, so we can ensure the City is covered at all times during the campaign.

Baking:

We would love to have some handmade Christmas treats to give the Devonport community as we serve on December 14th & 21st!

If you are willing to bake, label ingredients and drop-off any type of Christmas treat, it would be greatly appreciated.
