April Volunteers of the Month, Regional Retreat Volunteer Teams
This month, MCCW recognizes and thanks the amazing volunteers who helped put on their regional retreats.
From behind the scenes social media posting and registration monitoring to planning table decor, games, and devotions; from manning the registration table to setting up and tearing down each activity or session; from documenting the retreat in photos to gathering toiletries for the Saint Jude tables; from serving as lectors or EMHCs during our liturgies to making last-minute supply runs, countless volunteers worked hard to ensure that each attendee had a wonderful retreat experience.
Some generous women were part of a formal retreat planning team. Others signed up for tasks via Sign-Up Genius or email. And still others simply showed up at the retreats, saw a need, and stepped up to fill it!
MCCW is an all-volunteer organization and we count on the help of many to make the work light and to make all we do possible. From all of the members of the Worldwide board to each of you who helped in your region — thank you!
