Why Serve With Us

Grow while you serve

Our team strengthens marriages, supports parents and nurtures spiritual growth through teaching, care, prayer, mentorship and outreach. When you join, you do more than help. You are discipled, trained and sent.

Over one year you gain hands-on experience in faith-based ministry and nonprofit leadership, rotate through our teams and work on real projects that reach families around the world.

What you receive

  • Spiritual leadership development for your own faith and calling
  • A 12-month growth plan shaped around your strengths and goals
  • A mentor and a team buddy to walk with you
  • Weekly check-ins in your first month, then monthly
  • Workshops in ministry operations, projects and nonprofit leadership
  • Real projects in leadership, family care and outreach
  • A behind-the-scenes view of how a global ministry runs

The LEGACY Series

Not sure if this is your next step?

Joining our team is one of two paths in our LEGACY series. The other is FAMI, the Family Ambassador Mentoring Intensive. From 2028, the LEGACY study will be where everyone begins, helping you discern which path God is leading you into.

Questions

Volunteer FAQ

Who can join the team?

Anyone with a heart to serve families, a desire to make a lasting impact and a willingness to be part of a team. Specific requirements are discussed during selection and orientation.

How long is the commitment?

The apprenticeship runs for one year and begins with a 12-week onboarding and training.

Do I need to do LEGACY first?

From 2028, the LEGACY study will be the first step for everyone moving into our Apprenticeship. Until then, you can apply directly using the form on this page.

Is this the same as FAMI?

No. Joining our team means serving with Families Arising as a volunteer. FAMI, the Family Ambassador Mentoring Intensive, forms Kingdom leaders to serve families as ministers, counsellors, coaches and disciplers. LEGACY helps you discern which is your next step.

Can I serve from anywhere?

Yes. Our team serves families around the world, and most of our work happens online.

What if I cannot volunteer right now?

You can still partner with us through one-time or monthly giving, and by praying for the families we serve.

Can't volunteer right now?
