Volunteers Needed
Immanuel Bible Church has a wide array of ministries that serve our congregation as well as our community. Most of these are staffed by volunteers who are committed to serving on a regular basis using the gifts and talents the Lord has given them. If you would like to serve the body of Christ here at Immanuel, we have a place for you! Below are listed ministries with a current need of volunteers. All offer training if necessary; more important is a desire to be used effectively. Our Registration Form will give you an opportunity to indicate your availability: Sundays, weekdays, or evenings, and a comment field if you would like to indicate any other areas in which you might consider volunteering.
