Join the Hospitality Committee

Are you passionate about making everyone feel at home in our church family? We're looking for friendly faces to join our Hospitality Committee.
What you'll do:

  • Be part of creating BUF's beloved community

  • Help in organizing special events and fellowship activities such as after-service potlucks, building tours, socials, Pathways to membership classes and more

  • Work together on how to help newcomers feel welcomed and valued

  • Serve as a Greeter or Usher, if you wish

Time commitment: a few hours a month, including a meeting at BUF. 

If interested: contact Judy Kasper or Felice Davis at hospitality@buf.org, leave a message with Alison in the office at (360) 733-3837, or sign up at the Welcome Table in the foyer. No experience necessary. Just bring your heart for hospitality. Together, let's make BUF a place where everyone feels they belong.

Volunteer or Donate Items (warm socks, gloves, hats) for C.A.S.T.

CAST donations are always needed for our unhoused community: warm socks, gloves, hats can be put in the CAST box in the BUF coat closet. 

A team of 50 volunteers serve sandwiches and other food items, four nights a week downtown by the library. At least six BUF members are regular volunteers. If interested in joining the team contact volunteer@buf.org or talk to Judy F., Beth F., Constance O., Henry O, Ann S., or Linda T.
