Volunteer Angels and Departments
There are many ways to serve at Fairview Christian Church. One way is to help with one of the various ministries by joining one of our departments. However, there are also many ongoing opportunities to serve, that you can volunteer to do, without being on a department. Listed below are some examples. You can volunteer for individual events as needed. We invite you to use your gifts and abilities in serving God through our work and service together. Discuss your volunteer aspirations with the chairperson of the department of your choice. Or you may do volunteer work with more than one department.
