About Opportunity

The lady resident up until recently attended the local church, but due to circumstances out with her control she can no longer access as she would wish. This opportunity to volunteer to act as befriender/escort would enable this lady to continue her life-long routine of attending church service every Sunday when possible,. It is very important to this lady to attend church on a regular basis and through you, this lady will be able to attend on a regular basis. Weather permitting, this lady is able to walk to the local church, but on a rainy day other arrangement will be made.
