VOLUNTEER WITH RED BIRD MINISTRIES

Every Act of Service

Becomes a Place of Encounter

No grieving family should have to walk alone. When a family experiences the loss of a child or a tragic loss, their world changes forever. Volunteers are the heart of this mission, serving as the hands and feet of Christ when families need it most.

You do not have to be an expert in grief to serve. You simply need a heart willing to love, listen, pray, and help create places where grieving families can encounter the compassion of Christ. Every act of love helps build a Church that knows how to remain with the grieving after the funeral, after the meal train ends, and after everyone else returns to normal.
