VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Looking to get personally involved in the ministry of Canonicus? There are many opportunities to serve, including work days, camp preparation, online and office work, mailing preparation and many other opportunities.

Besides supporting the Canonicus and ABCORI ministries, there are many personal benefits when you volunteer at Canonicus.
    
  Work in a beautiful outdoor setting (or enjoy the view from any office window)
    
  Be part of furthering the wonderful ministry at this special place
    
  Have an opportunity to work alongside and support our year-round staff
    
  Enjoy a tasty lunch provided upon request
    
  Meet new friends that have similar interests to your own
    
  Come together with other Christians to serve in work & fellowship
    
  Enjoy being part of the ABCORI family

Although there are several fixed opportunities, sometimes volunteers are needed with only a short notice, so we need to constantly grow our volunteer database.  If you think that volunteering might be of interest to you,  contact our volunteer coordinator, Kathy Black, to find out more details and ask for your name to be entered into the mailing list.  Kathy can be contacted by email or phone: (401) 294 6318 (ext. 102).  Contact Kathy today!   All levels of ages and work skills are needed and welcomed!

The Raiders
This group of retirees comes to Canonicus once a week, every week, to help with construction and maintenance projects on the property.  Several of our summer shelters have been built entirely by this amazing group of volunteers. Most recently they have been busy remodeling our camp store that is newly named The Hansen Trading Post! If you want to find out more, please contact our maintenance department and ask for Chris Lussier at (401) 294 6318 (ext.107)

Volunteer Banquet
In May, we hosted a dinner to show our appreciation for all the valuable work that our volunteers do to continue the ministry of Canonicus.
