The 10 Reasons Why Someone Serves at Your Church (Part Two)

Show Notes

Show Notes and Resources Mentioned:

I believe there are at least 10 reasons why someone serves at your church and on your team.

Click here if you missed EPISODE 006, where I give the first 5 reasons why I believe someone serves at your church.

6. To join the mission of the church.
People want to be a part of something big. There are thousands of causes and charities that people endorse and give time, money and energy to. What better mission is there to serve than the local church?

7. Your vision is compelling.
Volunteers don’t respond to need as much as they respond to vision. When you cast a compelling vision, people follow.

8. To find community in relationships with others.
People want to belong. They want to feel apart of a group. They long to be cared about, served, and loved. When you create an exciting culture, people want to be apart of it.

9. There is joy in Loving People and giving back.
Jesus is Love. Create more roles and more opportunities on your team for people – you’re literally giving them the gift of joy.

10. Serving can be fun.
Do your volunteers have fun when they serve? As the leader of your ministry, you are setting the tone. If its fun for you, people see that and feed off of that. Create an environment where its fun to serve!

When creating your volunteer culture, it’s good to know why your volunteers are there in order to know how to minister to them.

Your team members want to be involved in something that matters.
What we do in ministry matters for eternity!
