Volunteering

Join us as Common Thread Church partners with HOPE Ministries and Garner United Methodist to bless our unhoused neighbors in the Raleigh/Garner area in a day of service that is "here.now.small.doable." Event Day We’ll be serving breakfast, offering showers, and distributing clothing to those in need. Common Thread’s Role: Cooking and serving hot grits with toppings & assisting with shower stations. Garner UMC’s Role: Serving bagels with cream cheese, assisting with showers, and distributing clothing.   Ways You Can Help: Volunteer – Come on the day of the event to help cook and serve grits, assist with shower coordination, and offer hospitality. Donate + Volunteer – Contribute toward food supplies and serve on the day of the event. Donate Only – Help cover the cost of grits, toppings, and other supplies like bowls and spoons even if you can’t be there in person.   Clothing Collection (9/13-9/27): We are collecting men’s pants, belts, and shirts to bless our guests. Please bring donations to church in the weeks leading up to the event. Let’s come together to serve, share, and show LOVE in a tangible way! Sign up here and choose the option that works for you.
