Short-term Volunteers

COVID-19 note: Applications are currently being accepted. However, service placement may be delayed until the relevant country of placement stabilizes from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The following photos are members of our churches who have chosen to serve with one of our international partners as a short-term volunteer – a term that can be anywhere from two weeks to ten months.

Are you interested in serving with one of our global partners? Creating a volunteer opportunity is a process, which can take a few months. During that time, Global Ministries attempts to match your skills and interests with a need or opportunity that one of our international partners may have at the moment. Please plan accordingly for this time of dialogue and discernment as you consider your available dates and then send an email to lhernandez@dom.disciples.org if you would like an application.
