There are many ways to serve at Calvary Mercer, from caring for children and supporting services to reaching the community and building meaningful relationships. Whatever your gifts or availability, there’s a place for you to get involved and make a difference.
Our nursery cares for infants and toddlers in a safe, loving environment. Volunteers serve on Sunday morning services from 9:45-11:30am.
We also have a special need for Wednesday evening volunteers (Midweek Service).
Help teach and care for children as they learn about Jesus in fun and engaging ways.
Our Children’s Ministry program is broken up into 3 classes: Builders (PreK + K), Voyagers (Early Elementary), and Explorers (Late Elementary). We have a need for teachers and helpers in each class! Whether you’re comfortable teaching or simply want to be a guiding presence in the room, we invite you to aid in bringing the gospel to the young hearts here.
Invest in the next generation by discipling and mentoring students.
Our Youth Group includes grades 7-12 and meets Wednesday Evenings from 6:30-8:30pm. We invite you to partner with us in demonstrating faith for them to see, teaching them Scripture, and providing a fun & caring environment for them to grow in.
Serve musically by leading the church in worship on Sundays and Wednesday evenings.
Our worship ministry aims to be true worshipers as we invite the congregation alongside us in presenting thanks and praise to our Lord. We seek to minimize distractions and direct the body’s attention to Jesus, preparing for time under the Word of God. There is always opportunity to serve here, with a particular need for help on Wednesday Evenings.
Assist with sound, slides, cameras, and livestream during services.
For both Sunday and Wednesday services, there is always a need for those to run our slide projection software, manage our livestreams, and operate our sound board. If any of these options interest you, we welcome you to serve the body here.
Be a warm and welcoming presence for the familiar and the visitor alike.
Oftentimes people come to know a lot about a church through their experience walking in the doors. Our hope is that people see our love for Christ and others the moment they are greeted here. If you would like to serve by simply inviting folks into our building before services, we would be glad to add you to the team.
Ensuring the safety and care of those worshiping here.
Unfortunately threats to safety are a very real possibility and we have a team of individuals dedicated to keeping a watchful eye over the building during gatherings. If you would like to aid in our efforts to provide security for folks gathering here, let us know and we can get you involved.
Be part of sharing the gospel through local and global outreach opportunities.
We are always looking outward to bring the life of the gospel to our community. If you have a desire to be providing for folks in need or engaging in gospel-centered conversations, we’d love to present you with opportunities to join those efforts.
Serve those who are homeless, widowed, or in need of practical support.
Life is filled with difficulty and troubling circumstances. Part of our responsibility as the body of Christ is to being bearing each other’s burdens and meeting needs as they arise. If you would like to serve in a variety of ways including meal trains and prayer, we can invite you to join us in these life-giving opportunities.
Help care for and maintain the church building and property.
God has called us to be stewards of the good things He entrusts to us, including our building and property. There are always projects and headaches that arise when managing a property, many of which require specific skills and experience. If you have a particular skill, or are simply able-bodied, our church would be blessed by your efforts.
