Volunteer Ministry Opportunities Dr. Tonya Merriweather Gipson Volunteer Opportunities The following are just a few of current overseas volunteer assignments that are available. Creating a volunteer opportunity is a process, which may take up to 6 months. In that process by partnering with other ministries we attempt to match an individual's skills and interests with a need or opportunity that one of our international partners may have at the moment. Please plan accordingly for this time of dialogue and discernment as you consider your available dates. Please note that International partner churches/agencies, are not always able to financially assist volunteers in overseas service. Overseas volunteers are usually expected to fund their work and living expenses. In some cases, the host institution may provide housing or meals, but this is not always possible.
