Open Sewa/Volunteer Programme
Suitable for -
Opportunity Description
The concept of sewa - selfless and love inspired service - grounds our lives in love and selflessness. It provides us with an opportunity to take authentic action.
Time devoted to seva, is not time lost, but time gained. Those that have dedicated countless hours, days, weeks and even years to support the Gurdwara Sahib and the Sangat it serves, consistently find clarity and purpose in all aspects of their lives.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji continues to guide us with the words Vand Chako – share and consume together. One of the founding pillars of Sikhism.
Example of Seva include but are not limited to:
Langar
Daily opportunity to support cooking in the community kitchen (Langar) from 10am – 11am every morning.
On Sundays between 2pm – 5pm there is an opportunity to support the team with cleaning the kitchen.
Technology
Supporting the technical team with audio/visuals on Sundays and major events.
If you have a good phone/camera and an eye for photography our Social Media team would also be interested in hearing from you.
General Cleaning or Gardening
There is always an ongoing need to support the Gurdwara’s general cleaning schedule. This helps to maintain our high standards to ensure the Sangat’s experience is as comfortable as possible.
Also, quirky but interesting – nobody really likes to wear “used” ramaals. Weekly washing, drying and ironing of guest ramaals is something everyone forgetting a head covering would really appreciate.
Requirements
Just about any skill you have, can be applied to serve others - so just get in touch and see how we can get you helping others.
