Baptist Quick Build
We need volunteers
Skilled in a building trade? Want to use some muscle on a new church site? Want to experience a short term team ministry without leaving Canada? Then Quickbuild is for you! Sign up for our volunteer mailing list to keep informed!
Here’s what we do.Quickbuild assists new churches in erecting a first building. Once a church has been approved for a Quickbuild, the Quickbuild Committee does the preliminary work involved in site preparation. Then a small army of volunteer trades people, skilled handymen, and labourers descend on the site for a one week building blitz.
Under the direction of a qualified site superintendent, the building quickly takes shape. At the end of one week enough work has been done to enable the congregation to have their first service in the new building. Imagine their excitement and joy!
Who can we use?
Quickbuild needs all building trades including framers, brick/block layers, drywallers, electricians, plumbers, etc. Many of our volunteers are skilled handymen. General labourers are needed as well. Men and women are welcome to participate.
Here’s how it works.
When we have a project (usually one each year) you will receive notification. If you wish to participate you return the registration form and the skills inventory form. Volunteers must cover all travel, accommodation (there are often billets at no cost), and personal expenses. An income tax receipt will be issued for all legitimate expenses. All meals are provided on site at no cost to the volunteer.
If you are interested in being part of this practical hands-on ministry, we want to hear from you. Sign up for our mailing list and we’ll be happy to send you information on the next project!
