Find Your Place to Serve

Serve Teams

Each campus has amazing teams of volunteers. From the parking lot to the platform, Serve Teams make a difference in the lives of everyone who comes through our doors. Join a team, make new friends and own the atmosphere at your campus!

Host

The Host Team is responsible for connecting with people. Hosts actively seek out those who are new to our church as well as those who seem disengaged and go above and beyond to help people feel seen and included.
