Description:
| Brethren Volunteer Service seeks people willing to act on their commitment, values, and faith. We challenge individuals to offer themselves, their time, and their talents to work that can be difficult and demanding, yet rewarding and joyful.
Since 1948, Brethren Volunteer Service has been about people sharing God’s love through acts of service. As a Christian-based volunteer program sponsored by the Church of the Brethren, BVS builds on the church’s strong commitment to service.
BVS volunteers come from many different backgrounds and from different faith perspectives. They are young adults and retirees. They are persons with little formal training and those with advanced degrees. They are US citizens and those from other countries.
Volunteers serve a year or more at projects that commit to one or more of the following goals of BVS: working for peace; advocating justice; serving basic human needs; maintaining the integrity of creation.
Service benefits include: housing, food, full medical insurance, a monthly stipend between $60 and $80, and the opportunity to serve others.
Requirements to serve in BVS include: 18 years of age or older to serve domestically; 21 years and a four-year college degree to serve overseas; sound physical and mental health; willingness to examine the Christian faith; commitment to the goals of BVS; participation in the three-week volunteer orientation. International volunteers are required to have a formal interview in person with our staff.
Exciting times are ahead if you are willing to take the risk of service!
