Why Should You Volunteer at a Baptist Church

“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14

Serving in the church is how one expresses the life of Jesus Christ to others. The Baptist Church becomes crippled if one doesn’t serve according to their God-given gifts. As we allow the Gospel to change our hearts, we will develop deep care for other people. Our attention will begin to turn away from ourselves and to the needs of others. To measure one’s spiritual health means knowing how concerned one is for other people.

In the life that we live in, there are many causes that you can volunteer in during your spare time. Volunteering is a worthwhile activity that not only enriches the hearts of others but yours as well.

“And now it is because of my hope in what God has promised our ancestors that I am on trial today. This is the promise our twelve tribes are hoping to see fulfilled as they earnestly serve God day and night. King Agrippa, it is because of this hope that these Jews are accusing me.” Acts 26:6-7

With our busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering in the Baptist Church can be enormous, like:

-Volunteering in a Baptist Church gives you a chance to make a person redeem themselves. These efforts will result in changing someone's life for eternity and make him or her brand new.

-Being a volunteer gives you a healthier image of yourself. You will have a good sense of pride in knowing that your life has made a difference in other people. Remember, serving others exposes your character to areas that need to be refined.

-As a volunteer, you will be making better decisions. Volunteering keeps you in regular contact with others and helps you develop a solid support system, which, in turn, protects you against depression. Instead of having a weekly night out, you’ll be more hard-wired to give to others.

No work is small, and volunteers are valuable resources for a Baptist Church. Whether it’s about the financial, spiritual, or physical contribution, it will matter a lot. Being a volunteer, you can get involved with noble work, serving those who need your care and affection.

Calvary Road Baptist Church is here to meet your spiritual needs. We have ministries of compassion who extend a hand in sharing the love and hope that is found in the Good News. If you’re a member or a regular attendant in our church and you want an opportunity to serve, then why don’t you take advantage of a first serve opportunity and try something until you find your right fit? There is always an opportunity for new volunteers to help in any of our ministries. You can visit us or email us if you have any questions about how you can help in the church’s service or activities.

John 1:32, 34, NIV, “Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him…I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.” Dear God, thank you for granting us the privilege to commune with your Holy Spirit. For this, we are able to live a life meant for you and you alone. For this as well, we are able to redeem ourselves through your son Jesus Christ. Guide us to a righteous way of glorifying your name. Direct our actions and govern our thoughts to only act according to your commandments and think not of evil but of good and kindness all the time. Teach us Oh Lord the ways to strengthen our bond with you so that in the end, we may be worthy of receiving your divine promises. May you bless us with your holiness and goodness, so that we may serve as lights for our brothers and sisters who lost their hopes and dreams. May your will be done here on earth as it is in heaven. Amen. Calvary Road Baptist Church – Purcellville B...

Psalm 145:1-2, NIV, “I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name for ever and ever. Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever.” Almighty Father, we come before you today to give praise to your Holy Name. We lift up our grateful hearts to give you thanks for the life you created. We thank you ever loving God, for you never fail to show your infinite love for all of us. You have given your beloved son, Jesus Christ, to save us from our sins. We pray that you give us enough strength to resist temptations here on earth. Don’t let us stray away from you dear God. We pray that you govern our will and hearts to lead a path worthy of your love. We may stumble sometimes and blinded by the darkness of pain and suffering, but we know it is part of your divine plan and that you’ll never leave us alone. Because you are our One Great God, our strong defender, our source of light and courage. For this, I will proclaim and worship your Name in Spirit and in...
