Volunteer Opportunities

Safe to Sleep Shelter

SEAS is looking for volunteers to help with Springfield’s Safe to Sleep Shelter. This is a shelter that opens each night inside a host church. They provide snacks in the evening and a breakfast, cots, sleeping bags and showers to the at-risk women in Springfield.

Two volunteers take turns staying up to ensure the safety of the ladies. There is zero tolerance for drugs and alcohol. Each woman is screened before coming and a full assessment is done to see if they qualify. A full night stay is from 7 PM to 8 AM. Partial night is from 7-10:30 PM or 5-8 PM

New Gym Open

I am very proud to say that our new O'Reilly gymnasium offers many opportunities for our parishioners:

- Kids' basketball and volleyball
- Evenings/ weekend basketball and volleyball
- Morning walkers, etc.

If any of you individually or in a group are interested in using our new gym, please call the parish office to schedule such an event. - - - Fr. Tom

Gym Guidelines

Severe Weather Provision

As we enter the season of severe weather threats, SEAS has a safety plan in place. Should the sirens go off during services, ushers will check the weather radio to determine the level of threat. From the back of church, they will hold up a yellow card to indicate an alert/warning and a red card for the need to evacuate. Father will then give information to the assembly. Ushers are trained to move people away from windows to shelter in the hallways and bathrooms. People will be discouraged from leaving the building.

Safe Environment

The Diocese of Springfield-Cape Girardeau is committed to the protection of children and youth. Through the Diocese's Safe Environment program, more than 4,700 people have training to ensure a safe environment for our youth. Visit the following link for more information regarding Safe Environment.
