Over the past couple of years many of our volunteer positions and structures of the church were not needed due to COVID but as we have begun to recover and reopen, those positions and structures are ready for a comeback!

We invite you to look over the list below and prayerfully consider whether any of these roles are a good fit for you and a way for you to serve your faith community. If you are interested or want to learn more, please email info@shawneecommunity.org.

Shawnee Community and the Community Blood Center are hosting a blood drive at Shawnee Community on Tuesday, May 31st from 2-6:00 pm.
Why Give Blood?
Community Blood Center must collect almost 600 units of blood daily to meet the needs of area hospital patients. As there is no substitute for blood, Community Blood Center relies on volunteer donors like you to supply the life-saving blood and blood components to hospitals in Kansas and Missouri.
