How Do I Volunteer? |
The place God calls you to is the place where
your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet
~ Frederick Buechner ~
You just want to volunteer! So how do you figure out what your deep gladness is and which of the world’s hungers you have a desire to meet?
- Meet with a Connections Consultant on Sunday morning in the Ministry Center. Come to the Volunteer Connections table on second and fourth Sundays or stop at the Connection point any Sunday and visit with a Connection Consultant.
- Click Spiritual Gifts in the left hand menu list and take the simple version of the gifts and talents assessment Hitting Your S.T.R.I.D.E. This tool helps you integrate experience, spiritual gifts, talents, interaction style and dreams or passions into a great ministry fit – a perfect volunteer opportunity.
- Attend the next My Passions and Gifts Class for a more in-depth discovery of gifts and passions. This workshop helps you to discover the many blessings God has granted you and the ways He has equipped you to operate with joy and satisfaction as you serve.
- Check out the brightly colored cards in the Narthex under Volunteer Opportunities: Ongoing Serves and First Serves. Find one that fits and make the call or ask the Connection consultant to arrange a contact from the Ministry Connector in that ministry area.
