As a ministry of churches, we provide opportunities, support, and training for the body of Christ to get involved in caring for families. Interested in one of our volunteer roles? Please contact Navy Schrock at nschrock@new-mercies.org to be connected to the Ministry Coordinator at your church. If you have a gift or skill you would like to use to serve but aren’t sure where to connect, we’d love to discuss additional roles!
Join our Family Tree!
Our Host Families care for children in the home while also ministering to parents. Motivated solely by compassion, each Host Family is screened, trained, and approved and serves without compensation. New Mercies may serve children of all ages, but each individual Host Family determines the age, gender, and needs of the children they are able to host in their home. In many cases, Host Families develop an ongoing relationship with the family served that often continues after children return home, providing the family with a network of support. Contact us to learn more, or apply today!
Kroger Community Rewards
At each partner or lead church, a Ministry Coordinator becomes a point person for people in the church to learn about New Mercies, get involved, and receive support. A Ministry Coordinator connects New Mercies leadership with potential volunteers in the church and provides regular support for those volunteers. Contact us to learn more, or apply today!
Host a Fundraiser
Resource Volunteers offer support behind-the-scenes to keeps our ministry running. These are non-family facing roles within the ministry including prayer support, runner/delivery of necessary items, working in our resource closet, or preparing meals for our Host Families.
