A friendly face at the door. A cup of tea and a chat. A quiet place to pause during a busy week. These simple things can mean so much — and our volunteers help make them possible.
We’re looking for more people to lend a hand at Great Yarmouth Minster in three important ways:
Help keep our doors open during the week
Could you help us keep the Minster open from 10am to 12 noon on weekdays? Your time would help people visit this beautiful church, enjoy a moment of quiet, light a candle or spend time in prayer.
Serve teas and coffees on Sundays
A cuppa is a lovely way to bring people together. We need volunteers to help prepare and serve Sunday refreshments, giving everyone a chance to chat and get to know one another.
Join our Sunday welcome team
Our sidespeople — also known as welcomers — help people feel at home when they arrive for worship. A smile, a friendly greeting and a helping hand can make all the difference, especially to someone visiting for the first time.
Interested in helping?
You don’t need to offer to do everything. If one of these roles sounds like something you’d enjoy, we’d love to hear from you. Let us know what time you can offer, and we can talk through what’s involved.
Please speak to Wendy, our churchwarden, or a member of the clergy, or contact the parish office at office@gtyarmouthminster.org.
Thank you to everyone who already gives their time. Your kindness helps make the Minster a welcoming place for our whole community.
