Volunteer


We’re always looking for enthusiastic people to fill a variety of roles that support our church family and serve the wider Whitsundays community. Volunteering is a wonderful way to get more connected, make new friends, grow in your faith, and even learn a new skill. If you’re interested, simply let us know:
  • What you enjoy doing
  • How you’d like to help
  • When you’re available

We’ll work with you to find the perfect role for your gifts and schedule.
