God calls Christians through discipleship to be in ministry in our communities and our world. The VISION of the Mt. Sterling Community Center is to become an ecumenical service grounded in Christian principals proclaiming the Good News of God’s grace, which will reflect the needs of the total community. The community center has opportunities available for volunteers to give of their time, talents and energy, to help
fulfill the above vision statement. These opportunities may include:

• Receptionists— answer the phone, take messages; greet visitors and program participants; answer
  questions and refer inquiries to appropriate persons; make coffee, prepare snacks for children; provide
  supervision during children’s activities; visit and conduct tours with those who stop by the center.
