We believe in the power of volunteers, and FirstServe offers a variety of ways for people to discover and utilize their gifts in service to others. Training modules are available at various times of year.

Through this cooperative program with First Lutheran and St. John Lutheran congregations, each week volunteers prepare and serve more than 100 nutritious dinners for homeless and needy neighbors in the South Bay. Men, women and children receive good food and friendship every Monday evening.

This gathering for people 55+ takes place on the First Wednesday of each month at 11:30am on the campus of First Lutheran Church. A nutritious lunch is provided, and area civic and education groups offer informative presentations on issues of importance to elders. Recent presentations have included home safety, home caregivers, health care abuse, accessing local resources, and nutrition. Prime Timers is a great way to meet new friends, learn strategies for living, and have fun!
