Volunteer Training
ENVIRONMENTS
Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
MATTHEW 5:16
On retreat, you will have the opportunity to serve in several environments. Here are a few key places:
-
Meal teams – At some retreat locations, you will be a part of preparing and serving meals. Our meal teams are a great place to connect with other volunteers and help create an environment of hospitality and fun as we share meals together. Serving with your family? Don’t stress, one parent will be assigned to help per meal.
-
Student and Kid Groups –This is a time each day of retreat where we get to intentionally pour into the students and kids on retreat. All volunteers (kids and adults) will be assigned to a group once you arrive on retreat. Don’t worry – there are no skills required, our team will be there to help prepare and guide you each day.
-
Please note: your kids will be in groups with other kids of their age and gender. You will likely not be in the same group as your own kids.
