Get Involved
There’s nothing more powerful than churches working together to transform lives and communities In the Name of Christ.
When caring church volunteers walk alongside their neighbors, healthy relationships grow, holistic help happens, and reciprocal transformation is possible. That’s why volunteers are the heart of our ministry.
Could you step into your strengths and serve those who are struggling in your community?

Trained volunteers conduct intakes, listening and responding with wisdom and discernment and offering to pray with clients. They assess requests and provide resources to help meet their needs. Volunteers then follow up with clients to see how they are and if their needs were met. All of these important roles are filled with individuals who model Christ’s empathy, providing a listening ear and praying with those in need.
