Volunteering Opportunities

Our current time is a time where people have proven to be ready, able, and willing to spend some of their precious time on helping their fellow man. If you are feeling that gentle nudge to volunteer for a wonderful cause, Emmanuel Church Forest Gate would be thrilled to welcome you into our volunteering teams. If you want to participate but you don't have the time, we would be thrilled to have you join us in prayer daily for those of our congregation and our wider community who are in need of prayer.

Breakfast Club Volunteering

Passionate to feed the homeless? This is the volunteering opportunity for you! Once a week we run this breakfast event and we feed as many homeless in Forest Gate as we can. If you are passionate about seeing those in the most need fed we would love to have you be a part of our breakfast club.

If this excites you, send us an email at emmanuel.church.fg@gmail.com, we would love to have you!

Open Church Volunteering

Want to join a specific weekly event instead of a general team that can be called on? We would love to see you at Open Church. Interested in not just attending but being a part of the setup, the games, the socializing, the cooking, the snacks, or anything else? We would love to welcome you to our Open Church team and find the place you fit best for volunteering.
