Volunteer with Home Care & Hospice
Volunteers are the heart of a non-profit, faith-based organization like SpiriTrust Lutheran®. Our volunteers enjoy the role they play in helping their communities. They feel a great sense of personal satisfaction devoting their time and talents to helping others. Volunteering is even good for your health — studies show that volunteering alleviates depression and reduces heart disease.
