Volunteer

We can’t begin to talk about youth ministry without talking about the great need for resources from volunteers like you. Yes, even as you read this, you are volunteering in some capacity. You see, participation begins with an interest. And we believe you chose to click on this link not just to navigate through this awesome website, but also to appease your desire to fill your youth-ministry shaped hole.

So what are some ways to volunteer for ARK Youth Ministry? I’m glad you asked. No matter who you are, where you live, your desired level of commitment, or even the state of your spiritual well-being, you can help. Here are just a few ways:

• Apply to become a part of our volunteer staff
  Like to get neck-deep in ministry? Can you last more than 30min stuck in a room with a couple dozen screaming teens? Then this one might be for you. You’ll need to fill out our application to apply. While this program is the most demanding, it’s also the most rewarding, as you can see your impact with your own eyes. And the youth will appreciate you for commitment.
• Sign up to be a Sunday Bible Study teacher
  It’s a little bit tamer and a little bit calmer than our general Friday meetings, but the rewards are just as great. If structure is more your thing, you’ll definitely want to look into our weekly Bible Study lessons. We meet every week, on a rotation system with other teachers.
• Become a chaperon and/or snack provider
  There are two things you can guarantee about teens. 1) They’re always on the move and 2) they’re always hungry. Thankfully, you can help with that. Whenever we have outings and activities, we’ll need as many adult bodies as possible to help contain all the chaos. And if you’re more the domesticated type, your challenge is filling the endless abyss known as a teenager’s stomach.
• Contribute financially
  Donations are always appreciated, as our events do require monetary investments. There are multiple ways to donate. You can write checks directly to “The Garden Christian Fellowship” or you can make online purchases through our affiliate links. We get a small percentage of every purchase that is made. It’s that simple!
