Ministry Opportunities

We believe that serving others shows the true heart of who we are. Through our service as disciples of Christ, we share the Gospel message and encounter a world that needs compassion, healing, and relief from suffering.

Not sure where you are called? Click above (Liturgical Ministries, Formation, or Outreach) to check out opportunities that might help you discern where your gifts and passions intersect with the needs of the church and the world. Our Next Steps Director, Nick Brady, can also help get you connected. 

If you haven't been involved yet, take the next step and offer your time and talent to the Lord through service. It's a privilege to be Christ in action for others! Imagine the transforming impact if our entire faith community abandoned their comfort zones and intentionally set out to serve the world around us. We are called to be His ambassadors who put their faith in action and seek the good for others.
