Colossians 3:24 (NLT) ~ Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and the Master you are serving is Christ.

Benefits of Volunteering

• The sense of satisfaction you receive when you participate in the great commission and help bring the Good News to the least Christian regions of the world.
• For those volunteering in our Spokane, Washington office, you may be invited to participate in some of our activities such as the annual Christmas festivities and our weekly chapels in which we sometimes hear from visiting partner ministry leaders or Partners staff from various parts of the world. Activities in the regional offices will vary based on local factors.
• Giving to God by giving your time and willingness to work. Some may not be able to give financially as they would like to do, but giving themselves to serve God's kingdom is coin in His realm. He honors those who honor Him by serving.
