Serve

Individual Volunteering

Life-changing opportunities start here

Whether you want to serve long-term or short-term, there is a home for you here at Ciudad Refugio. Some come to discover God’s call to minister or vocation, others come to teach, support the church, or work in the youth group, and others just want to practice their Spanish. Whatever your reason for coming, anyone who shares our DNA of “Loving God and Serving People” is welcome at Ciudad Refugio.
