Volunteers Make the Difference
She arrives at the My Father’s House Lubbock kitchen, puts on some latex gloves and begins her meticulous labor of love – cutting carrots and loading hamburger buns to build sloppy joes. “When they need someone, I come,” she said. “Since I retired, you have to have a reason to get up in the morning. On Thursday, this is why I get up.” Hutson has been volunteering to serve meals at My Father’s House since the building’s foundation was first laid in 2001. She enjoys helping people, she said. And she enjoys knowing her efforts help the ministry. “If they had to pay someone to do what I do, it would take away from something else,” she said.

June Hutson may be retired, but it doesn’t keep her from getting up early each Thursday morning and going to work.
Volunteers are always needed at My Father’s House. If you have a special gift or talent – or you just have the gift of time – you can help women achieve their goals of self sufficiency. Volunteers are needed to help the Christian Women’s Job Corp, the ‘Dress for Success’ clothing closet and more.
