    Office Volunteer

    Focus of this Ministry: Office volunteers are a crucial part of the daily routines of our ministers and staff. By performing the mechanical duties of running an office this volunteer allows each staff member to stay focused on their own areas of ministry. The Administrative Assistant is a paid staff member and therefor comes with a cost to the church. With the help of the Office volunteers the Administrative Assistant can be a part time position affording a savings that can go back into the community. This keeps the mission of the church alive. Which is to love our community and invite them into a life-changing relationship with Jesus.


    Mission: To assist the staff with extra hands and helps to create a focus friendly environment.


    Who can serve: Office volunteers are required to be a church member/partner for at least 6 months.
