Family units serve in the following capacities:
Monthly assistance with Sunday morning worship. 
Provide workers, AND food or donations, for the Fall Harvest Chicken Supper.
Be available at the  request  of the church council and/or Pastor for special occasions.
New members at OSLC will be  included in a family unit; the unit leader will be notified. 
If any information concerning address, phone, or family has  changed,  PLEASE notify the church office.


Important  Explanation for  Each Family Unit
 *  Indicates an individual is a shut-in or a resident of an assisted living center.
[  ] Indicates an individual is a non-member.
( ) Indicates names of children in a family.
 Every member listed in a  Family Unit can anticipate being called for assistance and/or donations.


Job Instructions for Sunday  Worship Assistance
Ushers~  Collect the  offering. Assist with other usher duties if the need arises.
Greeters~ Please be available 20-30  minutes prior to the church service.  Greet all worshippers warmly with a  smile.
Encourage all visitors to  sign the Visitor’s  Register and to join the coffee fellowship after worship.
Scripture  Readers~ The church secretary will make arrangements for you to receive a copy of the  lessons to be  read. If you  do not receive a copy, please contact the church office. If you would like a  large-print copy, one will be furnished for you.  If  you are unable to read for  the Sunday that you are scheduled, please call  your unit leader early  enough so they can find a replacement. Check with Pastor for pronunciation of any uncertain words. Please sit toward  the front of the church. Be sure the microphone is on  and  adjust it to your height. Speak towards the microphone.
Coffee  Hosts~ The janitor will turn the coffeemaker on. Make 75-100 cups of coffee (or more depending on the size of the crowd). All  instructions for the coffee maker are on the wall beside the unit.  If you have questions, please check  with usher Dene Gullickson.  Be sure to follow  instructions for cleaning the coffee maker when done. Cups, napkins, creamer &  sugar packets, coffee servers and water pitchers can be found in the kitchen cabinets. Cookies & donuts will be ordered and will be in the  kitchen.  Please check the freeze for cookies/donuts that may have been left from the previous Sunday and use them first. At conclusion, place money and bakery receipt in the designated coffee can and  give to Bruce & JoAnn Clark in the church office. If they are gone, place coffee can in the kitchen cabinet to the right of the serving window.
 Communion  Helpers~ Serve the wine & wafers during communion; Pastor will give instructions. Three helpers are needed for each communion service, which is normally the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month.
