Jesus said, "Come, follow me & I will make you fishers of men."

- Mark 1:17, NIV

What motivates our volunteers?

Over 1,000 people have served in a volunteer ministry position at The City Mission over the last year. Why do they do it? Do they have too much time on their hands? Does it earn them bonus points with God? What motivates people to get involved in the compassionate outreaches of The City Mission?

An accurate understanding of what Christ has done for us is the foundational motivation for compassionate ministry. Jesus paid the price for the forgiveness of our sins through His death on the cross. For this we are indebted to Him. Our response is holy living and service, both out of obedience and gratitude. Through the Holy Spirit, He gives us the desire and power to step into effective service. This is the secret behind the relentless efforts of those who are making an impact through the ministries of The City Mission!
