VOLUNTEER
Fontbonne Ministries is full of appreciation for the people who donate their time, attention, enthusiasm and compassion across all the ministries.
Volunteering has increased my service to others, changing my perspective in life.
I hope to bring some joy and friendship to the people I meet.
Mustard Seed makes me happy when meeting new participants and volunteers.
I have become more accepting and comfortable with those who are hurting and need a friend or companion.
Volunteering has taught me that helping others helps me to grow and use and develop skills that I didn't know were important.
