We need a Team Member to lead the recruitment and engagement of volunteers that will impact our campus and each volunteer. The main responsibility is to tell the Eagle Village story to churches and in communities with the goal of asking people to join our mission by inspiring them to volunteer.

- Connect to church mission committees, service groups, businesses and individuals to offer mini mission trips or ongoing volunteer opportunities.
- Recruit and schedule people to participate in the monthly Friends Friday you will lead, to see our campus and take the next step to give time.

- Organize community events to provide Eagle Village updates and recruit volunteers.
- Plan and track visits and outcomes with churches, service groups, businesses and individuals to increase the number of volunteers that impact Eagle Village.
