Volunteers are the backbone of the Olympia Union Gospel Mission.
Volunteers provide support
in various ways: serving meals, making sandwiches for our clients, driving and delivering
furniture and household goods, and ministering the love of God one-on-one to
those in need. The harvest is great and many more are needed. Consider
sharing your time in this work.
Here are some ideas for getting involved and helping: Mentoring,
Baby Sitters, Bible Study Leaders, Teachers, Encouragers, Prayer
Partners, Office Help, Mail Labeling, Copying, Kitchen Help, Meal Preparation,
Serving Guests, Health Resource Professionals (Medical, Dental,
Vision) .

emotional pain and poverty. While secular organizations also
offer social services, Mission programs offer clients true
transformation through Jesus Christ. If you are a pastor or
ministry leader and want to learn how your church can help,

Maybe your group would like to volunteer
for an event
at the Olympia Union Gospel Mission. This
may include hosting a holiday party, sponsor a collection drive,
leading worship, provide an arts and crafts project for the
Mission patrons. There are a number of different
opportunities that can provide a rewarding experience in working
with God as He works in the lives of people who are totally
dependant on His mercy and grace.
We
offer the following suggestions/guidelines as you consider how
God is leading your group to participate with the Mission.
