Adult Volunteers
Join a house team, bring a meal, give a ride, or lend your skills — and become the welcome a family in crisis will never forget.
Love your neighbor — in person.
Every house at Houses for Healing is adopted by a church or partner that provides a rotating volunteer team. Joining one of those teams is the most common way adults serve — but individuals and families outside a sponsoring church are warmly welcome, too.
Whether you can give a few hours a month or a regular weekly shift, your time turns a tiny house into a place of real comfort for someone a long way from home.
Ways to serve
House team
Welcome guests, check in on their needs and be a friendly, familiar face during their stay.
Meal ministry
Prepare or deliver home-cooked meals for families coming home from long hospital days.
Drivers
Give rides to appointments, the pharmacy or the grocery store.
Turnover crew
Clean and restock houses between guests so each family walks into a fresh, ready home.
Skilled trades
Plumbers, electricians, carpenters and handy folks help with repairs and new construction.
Prayer partners
Pray for each guest by name and offer to pray with families who welcome it.
