Hello!
We know that coming to church benefits people in so many ways - spiritually, well being, education, culturally. It may be stating the obvious, but it's also true that it takes a huge team effort to make church happen, whether that is the literal church building and site being kept in order, to the putting on of services. If each person could offer one small thing to help make church happen, then that will spread the load across the board rather than concentrating the ask on a few.
Volunteering is also a great way of gaining a sense of well being, and connecting with others who are part of the volunteer team. A huge thank you, also, to those who are already going above and beyond to make both our churches and all our church events & services hospitable and welcoming. We who are many are one Body - make we work for the common good.
