Missions & Volunteer Opportunities

McMannen is in need of volunteers for many of the services we provide to the community.

McMannen is in need of volunteers for many of the services we provide to the community. Below is a list of current needs. No previous experience is required for any volunteer activity. Contact the church either via email (info@mcmannenumc.org) or phone (919.383.1263) if you are interested in volunteering in any of these areas.


1. Vacation Bible School (VBS) – Every summer, we organize a one-week, half day VBS program. Volunteers are needed to plan, organize, and execute this important program.

2. Peanut cooking/packaging/sales – Our Methodist Men need help cooking, packaging, and/or selling our famous peanuts across the Triangle and Triad. Funds are used to support local community and church activities.

3. Preschool volunteers – Our half-day preschool needs volunteers for one or more days each week to provide a variety of support roles for our teachers.

4. Choir member – Our Chancel choir practices and sings weekly at the 10AM worship service and has openings for all choral parts (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass). No

auditions are required, just a love for singing.

5. Sound/Video support – We have a dedicated group of individuals who provide audio and video support services for all performances at the church. Volunteers are needed to setup and operate equipment as needed for church and/or community activities.

6. Shelter Meals – Every month, we prepare and serve meals for homeless individuals staying at the Durham Community Shelter in downtown Durham. Volunteers are needed to purchase, cook, and/or serve meals each month.
