Volunteer Opportunities
An opportunity to develop and use the gifts God has given you to meet the needs of our church and community
At Chelten, we have the opportunity to develop and use the gifts God has given us to meet the needs of others. From helping out with Children’s Ministry to running the sound board during a worship service, there are plenty of opportunities for people with all sorts of skills, personalities, and availability to plug in at Chelten.
Compassion Ministries
FOOD PANTRY
Our food pantry, Seeds of Hope, provides for hundreds of food insecure families each week. We value the opportunity to encourage and build friendships as we lend a helping hand to our neighbors.
