Volunteer Application

Thank you for your interest in serving with us. We believe healthy churches are not built on the gifts and talents of a few people, but on the contributions of many. Volunteering at Ethos Church is a way to serve the larger church body and grow in community. We look forward to serving with you.

The typical volunteer commitment is serving at one worship gathering, one Sunday per month. However, you're welcome to serve more if you'd like.

Our goal is to create a safe environment for people of all ages to volunteer. For that reason, we ask that you complete the information below. If you do have a criminal history, we encourage you to fill out this form and we will have a confidential follow up conversation to discuss your unique situation. This will help us determine the best way for you to serve with us.
