Discover the Joy of Serving

At AnchorPoint, we believe that everyone has a part to play in building God’s house. Volunteering isn’t just about filling a need—it’s about being part of a family, using your gifts to make a real difference in the lives of others. Whether you’re greeting others as part of our Connections Team helping with AnchorKids, joining the Worship Team, setting up for services with the Facility Set Up/Pack Up Team, serving coffee in the Café, or supporting behind the scenes with Finance/Bookkeeping or Comms/Promotion, or any of the other valuable AnchorPoint roles, every act of service matters. Each role—big or small—contributes to creating a space where people can encounter God’s love and find community.

When you volunteer, you become part of something bigger than yourself. You’ll build meaningful relationships, grow in your faith, and discover the joy that comes from giving your time and energy to serve others. If you’d like to get involved, fill out the form below—we’d love to help you find the perfect place to serve!
