Candlelight On CALL Training
Sunday, August 2, 2026 - 1:30 PM
Join us for On CALL Ministry Training and learn how you can be part of a ministry community that serves our Candlelight family in practical ways during times of urgent need.
On CALL stands for Critical Assistance of Labor and Love. Volunteers come alongside those facing difficult situations by helping with things like emergency repairs, labor, and other hands-on tasks.
But this ministry is about more than completing a project. It is about building relationships, encouraging one another, and being equipped together so we are ready to serve the Body of Christ when needs arise.
Quarterly fellowship trainings will also be part of the On CALL Ministry, giving volunteers time to grow together, strengthen relationships, and stay prepared to respond.
To sign up, email Pastor Trevar at TrevD@Candlelight.org.
