Amos 5:8

"Do you realize where you are? You're in a cosmos star-flung with constellations by God..." Amos 5:8

This blog is to remind myself and anyone else reading that God is bigger than us and our plans, and what God can do through us if we put our own plans aside and let him use us, following the ministry of Love Link Ministries, Inc. in downtown OKC.

volunteer opportunities

If you are feeling God leading you to volunteer at LLM, here are ways to get involved!

NUWAY Building Projects
As we are trying to get moved into our new building, there are many things to be done in order to make that happen. Here are a few:

• Heat and Air
• Put up ceiling tiles
• Trim sheetrock
• Repair/replace door lock
• Complete bathrooms (wire up ceiling vents)
• Change out light bulbs
• Change doors and hardware/knobs and locks
• Grind and paint floors
• New front door/threshold
• Sheetrock, texture, paint downstairs office
• Baseboards
• Remove bar hanging in front of bathroom
• Sweep and mop
• Shelving

MOVING
We will soon be moving! Praise God! While exciting, it will also be a lot of work. We have several heavy appliances, furniture, office equipment/furniture and lots and lots of boxes. If moving is your forte,  you have come to the right place.

FOOD PANTRY
We have enough volunteers on Tuesdays to work the Food Pantry, but could use more on Fridays. There are three phases of Food Pantry days.

Phase 1 is preparing bags of food. From 9:30am to 11:00am.
Phase 2 is signing people in in the waiting area, recording their visit in the computer, and carrying out food to their cars for them. From 10:45am to 1:00pm.
Phase 3 is cleanup and preparation for the next day's service. From 1:00pm to 2:00pm.

The biggest need right now is in Phase 2, but you are welcome to help for any or all.

TRANSLATING
Many who come through the Food Pantry speak Spanish ONLY. If you speak Spanish and would like to come translate during that time, it would be a great help! The Food Pantry is open every Tuesday and Friday from 11am to 1pm.
THRIFT STORE
There is ongoing upkeep in the thrift store. We need volunteers to come sort clothes, straighten shelves, dust, etc. Come for an hour or stay all day if you'd like.


GENERAL MAINTENANCE/MECHANIC
Where there are things running, there will be things breaking, as well. If you are good with plumbing, electric, carpentry, you name it, and would like to be available to call in case something breaks, we would love to have you as part of our volunteer team!

DRIVER
Many of the men in the sober living program do not have vehicles and sometimes need a ride to the doctor, grocery store, etc. If chauffeuring is your specialty, give us a call or send us an e-mail.
