Revised May 2024

General Information

Each Sunday, a small group of volunteers is needed to prepare Skidompha Library for our worship service. The volunteers signed up for a particular Sunday morning worship service is referred to as a “Pod”. Pods are responsible for opening up the library, setting up for the worship service, greeting attendees, providing light snacks and drinks for Coffee Hour following the service, and then taking down and putting away the Fellowship items into the storage closet off of Porter Hall and locking up the library. New volunteers are trained in the details of the procedures by signing up for a Sunday morning and being mentored by more experienced volunteers. Our aim is to have at least three volunteers per Sunday, and enough volunteers participating in the Pod program overall so that individuals need sign up only once per month. Pod participation is an essential element in the Fellowship’s ability to hold its worship services; and the sign-up schedule sheet makes it easy to pick your monthly date of choice. It’s also an enjoyable way to meet other members and friends and to contribute to the life of the Fellowship. A detailed complete task description is available. Contact the President with questions about getting involved.

The Pod schedule sign-up sheet is on the MUUF Google Drive. Passworded access is via the MUUF website uumidcoast.org (under the Worship or Members & Friends tabs. Use the “Request Access” option under the Members & Friends tab to obtain your password, if you don’t already have it.). The goal is to have to have at least three people signed up for each Sunday service. Each Sunday Pod should verify on the schedule sheet that (a) they are “all set” (i.e. no further needs) and (b) someone has keys to Skidompha Library. Again, contact the President if you have questions; or the Fellowship’s for technical access questions.
