10 Biblical Reasons Why We Serve
Colossians 1:10
so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God…
Matthew 5:16
In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Galatians 5:13
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.
Ephesians 4:11-12
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up
Philippians 2:5-8
In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!
Acts 20:35
In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’
1 Corinthians 3:9
For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.
Romans 12:4-6
For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us.
1 Corinthians 15:58
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
Ephesians 2:10
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Care
We are caring for people throughout the year. When people are in need, we want to be there.
The Care Team provides ongoing support to people experiencing a life event or crisis.
We connect with people through some of the following ways: phone calls to assess needs, providing meals and support, home and hospital visits to those who are ill or shut in, support during a loss, memorial services, and more.
Choir
The Midtown Choir is a great place to meet new people, have fun singing, and get introduced to the Worship Ministry! We sing on occasional Sundays, and during special events and video recordings.
Connection
The Connection Team is the "concierge" at Midtown Church. This team answers questions, provides information, and helps people get more plugged in at Midtown. There are various ways to serve on this team, including: talking directly to people at our Connect Booth, data entry, emails, and more. If you have great communication skills, data entry and administrative skills, or knowledge about our church, this is for you!
Creative
The Creative Team creates content to tell the story of Midtown Church through: photography, videography, and social media, and also manages online church. We're currently seeking individuals with skill and experience in all of these areas + a knack for storytelling and working with people. Some projects can be worked on remotely (such as photo and video editing, administrative tasks) but our biggest need right now is for live social media reporting, and experienced photographers with availability on Sunday mornings.
Facilities (Sacramento Campus)
The Facilities Team helps to maintain "God's house" through cleaning and maintenance throughout the week, and especially on Sundays during weekly church services. In addition to that, this team often helps with setup and tear-down for services and events. Occasional heavy lifting may be required.
First Responders
First Responders are people currently involved or have past experience within the medical field. People who can facilitate an effective response to the emergencies which occur in the church. We strive to create a safe environment in the midst of an emergency, taking into hand what can be done onsite and calling the proper authorities when required.
Requirements:

CPR/AED Certification
First Aid Certification
Greeters
Greeters serve as the 2nd point of contact as people arrive on campus for services and events. They greet people with a warm welcome and help them find their way around the campus. Greeters are stationed outside, at the church door, and inside the lobby areas. If you love interacting with people and spreading joy, then this is for you!
Hospitality
The Hospitality Team serves at weekly church services and events by creating welcoming environments for members and guests. We're looking for people who enjoy decorating, preparing and serving food, and who want to help make our church feel like "home" for all.
Kids Ministry
Do you enjoy working with Kids? Midtown Kids serves babies-3rd grade during weekly church services and occasional midweek events. We're looking for fun, friendly people to help in various ways: teaching, leading a group in activities, caring for babies in the nursery, assisting with check-in, and more! At this time, we have the most need during Sunday mornings.
Natural Disaster Relief Team (gathering interest)

Production
The production team creates powerful, distraction-free onsite experiences and weekly Sunday Services through live the use of lighting, video technology, audio engineering, operating slides (visual aids), and directing the flow of live production. Experience in these areas is preferred, but if you're tech savvy, a quick learner, and operate well under pressure, we will provide training!
Setup and Tear Down

Requirements:

Ushers
The Ushers Team helps to ensure a welcoming experience for all inside the worship center during weekly services and events. We meet, greet, and seat people, and provide whatever is necessary inside the worship center. Do you love helping others, and have a positive "customer service" attitude? You would be a great usher!
Youth Ministry (Midtown YTH)
Want to serve in MidtownYTH Ministry? Adult volunteers needed! Setting a fun and safe atmosphere requires a family of volunteers. We have several opportunities for you to get involved:
We're in need of support in setting up and tearing down for all YTH events small and large. We have spots for creative volunteers to capture and share the stories of our young people through video and social media. We're also seeking technical support to help run the sound and visuals for our YTH experiences.
