Mission Opportunities

We offer many ways to serve Christ, and we encourage you to follow your own interests and skills as they will lead you to the best ways you can serve. Within our congregation, service opportunities include music and worship, participation or leadership in Bible Studies, numerous volunteer roles with our children and youth programs, administrative support, creative opportunities in our just-for-fun fellowship events, or becoming involved with our Noah's Ark Preschool.   We invite you to become part of our church family!

Our local, national, and worldwide involvement includes many opportunities for youth and adults:

Costa Rica

Since 1991, our church has been serving in South America. Since 2016, a group of adults sponsored by our church has traveled to San Jose, Costa Rica where they have served in La Carpio, a squatters camp built on the edge of the main garbage dump where 40,000 Nicaraguans live. Our volunteers work with a local organization called Christ for the City International that operates a church, medical clinic, pre-school and community center. We provide medical and dental care, pharmacy, eye glass distribution, physical therapy and other social projects in La Carpio. If you would like more information, or would like to join the team on their next trip, please email the office.
