The ELCA cooperates with other Christian churches, and service is open to active members of the ELCA and other Christian churches. The listing of volunteer needs is updated periodically. Even if you do not see a possibility for yourself now, fill out an application form and it will be kept on file. Filed applications are routinely checked to see if there may be a match with new requests. It is at this stage when a DGM staff person will work more closely with you in deciding upon an appropriate assignment as available.
