Learning Experience
Recruiting Volunteers

The Learning Experience will assist children with reading and spelling; showing them how much fun learning can be! We’ll also demonstrate how much Jesus loves them through daily Bible lessons and prayer!

Pathway to Thriving

Discover Your Purpose
Fulfill Your Dreams

Compassionate Justice presents Pathway to Thriving. A Program which includes learning and personal growth in fun and exciting ways through experiential exercises, various activities, and Bible stories. This eight-week program moves students out of their classroom and into the safe environment of the Compassionate Justice Ministry Center. Our goal is to create an environment and program where deep relationships will flourish.

We seek four caring adult volunteers to mentor 10 students going into the 6th, 7th, & 8th grades. Volunteers will be paired with a couple of students to lead them in discussions and various activities. We are also giving the students an opportunity to learn new skills and seek potential future careers by taking them on one field trip during the eight-week program.

Mentor qualifications are easy:

Instill the joy of learning, while demonstrating God's love
A friendly spirit that brings smiles and encouragement to students and their families
Attend required orientation and training on Mon, Oct 20th, 10:00 am to 1:00 pm

Compassion Outreach Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer opportunities are available for both skilled and unskilled individuals. Most of the outreaches are “family friendly”. And we invite parents to involve their children and students as they exemplify how to “love their neighbor”! Everyone works at their own pace with the goals to:

• Glorify God
• Demonstrate our love for the community
• Develop high quality relationships with co-workers and community residents
• Enjoy serving together
• Work to accomplish the project priorities

When: Second Saturday each month from 8:45 am to 1:00 pm (lunch included)

Every month on the second Saturday, CJ organizes outreaches in Avondale to serve individuals and families as well as some institutions (i.e. schools, churches, public spaces). The outreaches include projects such as house maintenance (i.e. painting, etc.) and yard maintenance (i.e. pruning, weeding, mulching, etc.). We collaborate with a number of churches from the community as well as civic organizations. Our goal is to help carry the burdens of individuals and families which are too heavy for them to carry on their own (Galatians 6:2)!

Interested in helping to relieve other’s burdens?

We Promote a Christ Centered World View!

Compassionate Justice and our partners are guided by Biblical truth. We incorporate Bible stories, prayer, and spiritual discussions within all of our programs. We hope each participant will experience God's amazing love and grow closer to Jesus during their experience!
