Joining Hands as Volunteers: A Call to Serve
Scripture to Inspire Volunteering
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”
“God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.”
“Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.”
These verses remind us that every person has unique gifts meant to be shared through service. Volunteering is a powerful way to live out our faith, bless others, and strengthen our community through love and dedication.
