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.

Isaiah 45:22-23, NIV, “Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. By myself I have sworn, my mouth has uttered in all integrity a word that will not be revoked: Before me every knee will bow; by me every tongue will swear.” Dear God, how great of you. Everything here on earth is temporary — money is, fame is, jewelry is, even us humans. It is only you Lord God who is eternal — your Kingdom, your will, your love. How beautiful it is to live in accordance with your will and laws where we can find true peace and justice. Thank you Lord God for sending down your beloved son Jesus Christ to save us all. Thank you for through Him, we are able to see more of you and your greatness. Help us to become a more faithful and honest servant of you. Help us to be more worthy of your goodness. Hear out our hearts yearning for your guidance so that we may not stray away from the path you have prepared for us. Give us strength and willpower to resist t...

Philippians 3:20-21, NIV, “But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.” Dear God, keep us close to you. Govern our minds and hearts so whatever we may do be done in the glory and in honor of our savior Jesus Christ. One who forever reigns the heaven and earth. We will wait for His coming for we believe that we will be renewed and cleansed deserving a citizenship in heaven. For this, help us Oh Lord to find enlightenment in your words and that we may be able to put them into action. Grant us a kind, forgiving, honest, patient and loving heart so that we may proclaim your goodness sincerely and truthfully to everyone. Keep us strong for every test that challenges our faith and love in you. We trust in you Oh God always in every step of the way. Amen. Calvary Road Baptist Ch...

How to Be a Disciple in Today’s Manassas Baptist Church

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”Matthew 28:18-20 Today, we have a challenging question. Are you a true disciple of Jesus Christ or just a Christian? The Bible has passages that are the blueprint to those who claim that they are. By understanding what these writings mean, you will know what the Lord expects from you. But what makes a good disciple? Jesus knew what was in men's hearts. Today, a good disciple will take the initiative to listen to those around him or her. He or she will learn their names. He or she will take a keen interest in their everyday actions. A good disciple means to be a shepherd over the Lord's flock because discipleship goes beyond belief. It's the commitment to act, to speak, and to reach out to bring those lost back to the fold.
