Caring Ministry

Employment Transition Ministry

Sundays, 11 am, Room 209

Our goal is to reduce the time of employment transition by networking with many local organizations and through introductions to local companies represented by the members of FUMCR. Employment Transition Ministry volunteers assist both members and referrals from the FUMCR community in their efforts to find employment, change careers, or return to the workplace.
