Welcome to Ministry of Service.org Since 1896, Volunteers of America and it's ministry of service has supported and empowered America's most vulnerable groups, including at-risk youth, the frail elderly, men and women returning from prison, homeless individuals and families, people with disabilities, and those recovering from addictions. Our work touches the mind, body, heart — and ultimately the spirit — of those we serve, integrating our deep compassion with highly effective programs and services.

An Affirmation of Faith for Volunteers of America
|
 |
- We believe in the one supreme God, who is creator and is creating the universe.
- We believe God is made known to us in the Trinity as Father Son and Holy Spirit.
- We believe that God speaks to us through the Holy Scriptures which are inspired by God to lead us into truth and understanding.
- We believe that all people will sin, and that God offers us grace and redemption through acceptance of the teachings of Jesus who was truly human, yet the Son of God.
- We believe that the Scripture teaches we need to be cleansed in our hearts that we might find God’s grace by repenting toward God, believing in Jesus and allowing the Holy Spirit to regenerate our spirit within our heart.
- We believe that we are called to be the church, the family of God, to serve God by serving others, and to seek justice through our “ministry of service.”
We believe that the soul shall never die, and we shall be raised again everlasting, before God.
AMEN
