How You Can Help

Participate in Prayer

Prayer is a key to an outstanding outreach. Please make this a priority!

5:15 Prayer Time

Make 5:15 am and/or 5:15 pm Convoy of Hope prayer time. At 5:15 spend one to five minutes praying for the outreach and for families living in situations of human need.

Mealtime Prayer

Make every mealtime a time to remember those who are hungry and in need in your community.

Participate in Outreach Planning and Preparation

In addition to volunteering on the day of the outreach, consider participating in some aspect of outreach planning and preparation. Here are a few of the ways you can help:

  • Assist with mailings and correspondence
  • Distribute guest promotion handbills and posters
  • Donate goods and services
  • Give financially to the outreach
  • Help prepare lunch for site setup volunteers
  • Help procure, pickup, and stage equipment and supplies
  • Provide administrative support for outreach leadership
  • Volunteer for site setup and cleanup

Recruit Volunteers

Share the outreach vision with family, friends, and colleagues and recruit them to participate in the outreach.

Attend the Volunteer Commissioning Rally

The Volunteer Commissioning Rally is an exciting, high-energy, high-impact kick-off to the local Convoy of Hope outreach. This dynamic evening will unify and prepare volunteers to serve on the day of the outreach. Volunteers will have opportunity at the rally to sign-up for the area of service of their choice and receive helpful information and instructions.

Attend the Volunteer Orientation Meeting

The Volunteer Orientation Meeting is a brief orientation for all volunteers on the day of the outreach. At the conclusion of this meeting volunteers are dismissed to their areas of service where they receive their nametags and specific training. Volunteers should be parked and onsite 15 to 20 minutes before the orientation begins. All volunteers are required to attend the Volunteer Orientation Meeting.

Participate in AfterCare

AfterCare, which is the follow-up and discipleship of new believers, is the principal reason for a Convoy of Hope outreach. If your church is participating in AfterCare, prayerfully consider serving as an AfterCare Worker and make an investment in the life of a new believer.
