Eben Ezer Auxiliary

The Eben Ezer Auxiliary was established to “enhance the lives of the Eben Ezer neighbors through fundraising and promotion of public relations and goodwill in any way possible. Support from the Auxiliary plays a critical role in the success and development of the Eben Ezer campus and programs.


Major projects include:

  • Burrito Sales: The Auxiliary prepares and makes burritos, green chili, cabbage pockets, grebbel, and other delicious items for sale at various times of the year.
  • Gift Store: The Auxiliary maintains and supplies the items in the NEW Gift Shop at the Care Center on the Brush campus. The Auxiliary members will help with the operations of the store. The proceeds help to fund the activities of the Auxiliary, which support the activities and needs of the residents.  
  • Special Events: Our annual Luau, holiday parties for the neighbors, Bible study, arts and crafts
  • Eben Ezer Cemetery: Restoration and maintenance of our historic cemetery, where Pr. Jens Madsen, his wife, and several other pastors, brothers, and deaconesses are laid to rest.


The Eben Ezer Auxiliary meets every other month each year, along with gathering to work on projects.

Volunteers

Volunteers create a positive environment for our residents and are a real asset to our communities. Even though a volunteer’s job may not be difficult, their efforts bring meaning and growth to the lives of our neighbors. Volunteers are essential to Eben Ezer’s ministry.  


There are many jobs that volunteers can do ranging from answering the telephone to visiting someone who is lonely. Volunteers can take a scenic stroll with someone who is wheelchair bound or they can accompany residents on a shopping trip or to a special event. There are many things to do, and volunteers play an important role in getting all these things done and add value to the lives of our residents.  


Your efforts can make a big difference in the lives of so many. Please donate your talents and a little bit of effort to make someone who is feeling lonely and forgotten feel important again.  


If you would like to become a volunteer, call 970-842-2861 X9246 or email volunteer@ebenezer-cares.org.
