Churches are built, and made strong, by the hands of many. That’s why it is so important to have church volunteers who give their time, talents, and treasures as part of a team. Only with this essential input from dedicated individuals can the church have a positive impact on the community and the world. Churches rely on the unique gifts given to each individual by God. When those gifts are brought together by a common purpose, the results can be magnificent.
Reasons to Volunteer
Each individual has a reason to give of their time and talents. But aside from all those unique reasons, there is one key to each person’s decision to join other church volunteers. Everyone who dedicates time and talent to a program is doing so to better the lives of others. Such volunteers also benefit personally since their own lives are made better in the process.
Becoming a volunteer can be as easy as visiting a website such as Wolhawaii.com. Providing a few basic pieces of information such as your name and contact number/email can get you started. If you have a specific area of interest you can contribute to; the online form is the place to indicate such talent as well. Maybe you would be the perfect person to help with one of the important youth programs, whether it’s for the younger children or as a mentor for older youth.
Battling Hunger
If you feel your time and efforts would be better used in a program providing food to those in need, this opportunity is also available. Thousands of people around the world are living in poverty without sufficient food each day. Church volunteers can make a significant difference in these lives, helping to gather and distribute food to the hungry. No matter what your area of interest, you can make a difference as a volunteer. You can also follow them on Twitter for more information.
