Volunteer at MBC

Come to MBC

Join us this summer for bible teaching, engaging kids and youth programs, live music, and family time together at the beach or around the campfire.

Between September and June, you can experience one of our many MBC Retreats, customize your own group experience, or stay with us in our MBC BnB.

MBC is blessed with an incredible team of staff and volunteers. There are many opportunities to serve year-round. Consider joining us in our mission to help grow resilient, biblically rooted families to the glory of God.

Your financial support of Muskoka Bible Foundation enables our mission to write a better story for family in Canada. We long to see resilient, biblically-rooted families thrive in a society of shifting values; to the glory of God!

Widjiitiwin

The Widjiitiwin program fulfills Muskoka Bible Centre’s vision by partnering with community leaders in priority neighborhoods providing children, youth, and families with camp and retreats to help them experience life changing and lasting transformation through encountering God’s great love for them.

Volunteers are important to the mission of MBC!

Volunteers are the foundation that this ministry has been built upon, and volunteers are critical to the future of MBC as we seek to help grow resilient, biblically rooted families to the glory of God.

Our Volunteer Coordinator, Paulina Ham, works to recruit, train and place qualified volunteers into productive service. The first step is filling out the Volunteer Expression of Interest form.

Benefits

The MBC policy for volunteer workers is predicated on the assumption that the individual is volunteering his or her labour for the furtherance of the Mission of MBC and not with the expectation of any financial or other tangible benefits. Volunteers are not paid for their labour. Volunteers may be offered staff meals or meal vouchers for the MBC Dining Room as a thank you, following the guidelines of the MBC Volunteer Handbook.

Volunteering at Camp Widjiitiwin

The reopening of Camp Widjiitiwin also offers some unique volunteer opportunities. Partner groups come in for one week blocks, so most of these opportunities involve a one-week commitment to the role. With the commitment comes the reward of serving these important communities as they give their youth a week of a lifetime at Widjiitiwin. Here are some key volunteer jobs:

 

  • Billet a Widjiitiwin volunteer in your cottage or trailer for a week to help alleviate the staff housing pressure
  • Prepare and serve food in the kitchen
  • Help with the grounds and facilities on a maintenance team
  • Be a cabin leader and get to know the youth as you live in the cabins with them and guide them through their daily schedule
