Looking for Volunteers
Volunteers are vital to the work of the National Council of Churches in Australia. Thousands of Australians participate in voluntary work; the majority in a range of simple and practical tasks that assist ecumenical bodies reduce administrative costs. The volunteers in the NCCA and in State Councils are a great asset to these organisations, their programs and activities.
