Becoming A Volunteer
Our volunteers are the backbone of CFSA. Whether you're a nurse with 40 years of experience, fresh out of school, or just someone who is looking to use his time and energy to the glory of God, CFSA has opportunities for you!
Volunteers Manage Projects
Our volunteers complete the needed work to support the projects and missions set before us. Using their God-given talents and doing what they have been created to do - Spread the Word of God - makes them all critical components of this wonderful work.
Volunteers Lead Clinics and Humanitarian Missions
Our volunteers lead our clinics and missions partnering with the help of local residents establishing vital and trusting relationships with those we are blessed to meet and serve.
History and Tourism Opportunities
We offer one or two days during each trip for sightseeing and historical tourism. It is important for us to understand the cultural and historical context of the people and areas where we serve.
Becoming a volunteer is about using your time and talents for the Lord, giving selflessly to others and showing Christian love to everyone.
