The Process

Volunteer Volunteer teams respond to requests from the mission field. As IMB missionaries and nationals sense needs on their field that volunteers can meet, they will complete a volunteer request form for each need. This request reaches our office after appropriate approval. Occasionally, there are requests for a single individual, but most are for teams varying in size according to the need of the job. Therefore, when a church, association, individual, or other entity accepts a job, it is expected that the one accepting the job will enlist a sufficient number of qualified members required to complete the job.

Now that you feel God leading you to serve as a volunteer and meet the qualifications, you may be asking, “Just how do I go about this?” The steps below will help guide you along this exciting journey.

• Step One. Prayerfully consider where God would have you serve and the type of ministry He would have you perform.
• Step Two. Involve other appropriate individuals and/or groups in this decision-your church, association, organization, etc.
• Step Three. Check our Web site (Search Jobs) for jobs that are of interest to you.
• Step Four. If you feel led to accept a job listed on the site, complete the application which can be accessed through the link at the bottom of the job description.
• Step Five. If you do not find anything of interest on our Web site, call us since there may be some opportunities that do not appear on the web.
