Volunteer Information Survey

Volunteer Information Survey

St. Jude's volunteers are at the heart of everything we do, from cooking meals for our neighbours facing food insecurity, to weeding and planting in the beautiful gardens around our building, to assisting our clergy during worship. Everywhere you look, there is a volunteer team enthusiastically supporting our parish in different ways.

To help us keep St. Jude's a safe and fun place to volunteer, we are asking all current and interested volunteers to please take a moment to fill out our volunteer information form. Thank you so much!
