Opportunities to Serve at Corinth

At Corinth Church, our mission is to help people become disciples of Jesus Christ. We accomplish that only to the degree that each member of the body offers his or her gifts and talents in ministry.

With your investment of a few minutes, this form helps our Volunteer Coordinator know what interests you have, what gifts you want to develop, and to which areas you do not feel called. When opportunities and needs arise, this information helps our volunteer coordinator find the right gifts within the body of believers. Thank you!!
