Like to sing or have NO voice? Play guitar or piano? Please consider being a permanent part of the South Valley Hospice cheer up choir. We will be going on excursions to nursing homes, board and cares, and to homes to sing and bring cheer to those who are shut-in. If you do not sing, it's OK. It's the cheer and one on one they want. It is as easy as sitting with one shut-in and sharing a music packet and a smile.
You will be a regular volunteer--receiving a TB test, hospice training, and a background check, so we would like you to try to commit to at least half a year.
It would help if you were available on weekdays, but we can do weekends too. Once we have the group together, we can decide what day or days we can go out.
We are going to sing oldies-30s and 40s, etc., hymns, Spanish sometimes, English most of the time. You do not have to sing to be a part--you can come along to turn pages of the residents, or smile and hold thier hands.
If you would like to bring children, I would love to have them! But we would have to have permission from each location. Some would allow and some will not.
Bring all your ideas! It's the joy that is contageous and that will brighten someone's day!
I hope you can join us!

Mission Statement
We got our unique name from one of the original founders. She had just lost her job, and we had been volunteering that day visiting patients and singing for a nursing home. We were sitting down for a dinner together at her house. As one of our group heated the food, we started to discuss the name of the new organization. She yelled it out with great gusto. We all cracked up, and that was the start of The Hungry Souls Ministry!

Description
The Hungry Souls Ministry is a non-profit organization that helps find and train volunteers. These often include those with physical or emotional handicaps, the jobless, homebound volunteers, children or adults who need hours for school or for the court system, or groups who want to serve repeatedly, or one time only.
Additionally, The Hungry Soul's Ministry oversees the following ministries:
- Partners with churches to help poor families in third world countries to start businesses that will support their families. Already food carts have been bought and are being used in some cities in Peru. It is hoped this ministry will expand.
- Help children who grow up fatherless to be partnered with Christian men who can disciple them.
- Inner healing ministry called Oasis, based in Camarillo, CA provides One-to-one prayer ministry and workshops.
- Free health fairs offered to organizations within certain zip codes.
- Offers classes on spirituality free to churches to help congregations grow in spiritual maturity so they can take their God-given place in the body of Christ and be able to live free of fear, serving Jesus with joy.
- Offers to help churches form groups such as spiritual growth groups, prayer and study groups, or Theophostic groups, as groups are one of the elements recommended for spiritual maturity.
- Has provided a prayer and lending library full of spiritual resources, but is currently looking for another location.
- Helps individuals and organizations to find volunteers for their organization.
- Is in the process of putting up an informational spiritual website with a forum so members can help one another.
Board members include:
