Last night I got a call from a friend about 6pm to go and help build a volleyball court at Boys Town. Needless to say this was not your average backyard volleyball court. There was over 50 volunteers who had no idea that they would be building a volleyball court on a Tuesday night. I know I did not plan on shoveling sand for a volleyball court on a Tuesday night.
Last night and today I have been thinking about why people volunteer and how many people volunteer in percentages in your average town. Through some quick research on the net I found that roughly 26% of the population volunteered from 2006 to 2007.
What do you think the percentage is within church? How many people serve or volunteer who claim to walk as Christ walked?
