SHAPED to Serve
Each of us has been uniquely “created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10). He has given us talents, gifts and resources to be used for His glory. Take the S.H.A.P.E. Test and discover how you can be a joyful steward whom God can use to transform lives — in church, in the community or around the world!
Some ministries currently have more urgent need for volunteers than other ministries. Use the "I Want to Serve!" form to indicate your interest to serve in one of these areas.
For those of us who are currently serving in multiple ministries, you may be overly stretched. We encourage you to also take some time to seek the Lord on where He is calling you to focus on. You may want to take the S.H.A.P.E. Test to consider how He has wired you, and speak to your ministry leader to explore different options.
