Feet on the Street – volunteers needed!
Since we got back out on the streets in September 2024, Feet on the Street have made a real impact and contribution to our community. We have shared the love of God with so many people and helped to provide support, care and a listening ear every Saturday night in Falmouth. We have been overwhelmed with appreciation from the people we encounter, they are so grateful for what we do. But, we cannot continue this valuable work without more volunteers! Please consider whether you could give up one Saturday a month to join our team. Come out as an observer first to see if it’s for you. We have two shifts available, 9.00pm to 11.15pm and 11pm to 3am. Please email us if you are interested in finding out more – feetonthestreetalmouth@gmail.com or go to our website to sign up now! www.feetonthestreetfalmouth.org
