Volunteer @ GA
Your involvement in Great Adventure gives you a chance to see God at work first-hand. Whether you have a lot of time to give or a little, you can make a difference - and the rewards are incredible! It's easy to find a place to serve:
Host a Backyard Bible Club
"The rewards for hosting a club exceeded our expectations. For us, we were amazed at how the teenagers connected with the younger children with a powerful message. In addition, the after effect that it had on our small neighborhood. Our neighbors continue to talk about how the club impacted them personally. The greatest reward was witnessing two young girls come to Christ through our Backyard Bible Club and the impact it had on their families. We are excited to see the rewards God provides us this year during our Backyard Bible Club."

Drive for Backyard Bible Clubs
"It is such a blessing to drive a group of kids to their clubs. You have an opportunity to connect with students that you usually don’t know and be able to model trust and dependence upon our awesome God by praying with them and for them! Afterwards, you can encourage them to keep on doing what they are doing if they are discouraged, and praise God with them for answers to prayer they received! It is a little way to have a big impact!"
