Archives Committee
This committee seeks to retrieve, preserve, and present an historical record of the over 125-year history of Augustana. Many bits of memorabilia need to be organized and catalogued to keep Augustana’s memory alive. Contact Ron Swenson (303-751-6543) if you are interested in helping with this ministry.

Assist with mailings and publication assembly
Bulletin assemblers meet Friday mornings, 7 a.m. in the Ammerman Library for 1 to 1½ hours to prepare the Sunday bulletins for worshipers. Volunteers may work as little as once a month to as often as once a week depending on their own preferences and availability. Other assembly times are scheduled as needed to accommodate Holy Week, Easter, and Christmas worship.

The Tower newsletter is assembled monthly, usually on the fourth Tuesday, 1 p.m. in Rooms 106–108. Each volunteer works about six times a year with a crew of 12 for two to three hours, collating, folding, sealing, and addressing the newsletter. Volunteers are asked to give a one-year commitment since the work schedule is made at the beginning of the year.

Volunteers are also needed to assist with mailings at the need arises. For information on Augustana's publication ministries, contact Lyn Goodrum (303-388-4678 ext. 114 or goodrum@augustanadenver.org).
