Spirit Lake Program

The Volunteer in Mission teams are asked to perform light construction such as building wheelchair ramps, painting of houses, roofing and minor repair of elder and persons with disability housing depending on the experience and skill levels of the team. The mission teams will be provided with the materials and tools necessary to compete the tasks. 

Volunteer Schedule:

Sunday: Arrive at the Ministry Center between 3:00 and 5:00 pm. Worship on Sunday begins at 5:00 pm (we may join in if we arrive by then) and supper will be served at 6:00pm. Orientation will be conducted right after supper.

Here is a example of a "normal" day at the Spirit Lake Ministry Center:
