Volunteer Training

We are so thankful for everyone that volunteers at RiverCross Church. It's only because of our volunteers that people are cared for and lives are changes.


It's because of our amazing volunteers that so much ministry happens!


We want to not only give volunteers great opportunities to contribute and make a difference in our community & world, we also want to help our volunteers be the best they can be!


We send volunteers to great conferences each year. We believe in you & the impact you are making in this world.


And each year we have a "Equipping for Ministry" event for all our volunteers. It's an amazing day of hearing stories from all our different volunteers of how they are seeing God at work. It's an amazing day of sharpening our skills as leaders.


We are committed to create welcoming, caring & safe enviornments for everyone to have a place where they can discover Jesus.


Towards that end, we've taken special care to make sure all our volunteers are using their heads, hearts, eyes & ears to keep things safer for children and youth.


Here is our VOLUNTEER HANDBOOK


We ask all our volunteers working with children and youth to complete a VOLUNTEER APPLICATION FORM and have an up-to-date criminal record check (every 3 years).
