Volunteer Highlight | Carole Beasley
Monday, June 13th 2016
"My favorite thing about volunteering is getting to help people feel comfortable and meeting people."
At Friendship we believe the Church is not a building, it’s people, serving together to glorify God as an effective and influential church. So, each week, we’ll highlight a volunteer or staff member who serves at Friendship, because our volunteers and staff make everything we do possible! We’ve asked each person some fun questions to help you get to know them better.
Welcome Team volunteer Carole Beasley never met a stranger. Her welcoming heart shines through her smile, as she takes time each Sunday to welcome guests to Friendship.
