The Response Volunteer Network

an answer or reply, as in words or in action.

The Response Volunteer Network is a team of World Compassion partners who desire to help make a difference beyond just giving and praying for the lives World Compassion reaches around the world.
The Response team does this by raising awareness of needs in hostile nations and pointing out the strategic opportunities the Church has available to respond to these needs!
If you desire to do more than just give and pray this is a great way for you to engage. By becoming an advocate for World Compassion you can use your giftings and impact your sphere of influence to advance the message of Jesus Christ by empowering the local church in difficult nations around the world.
As an advocate, you will be influencing the values and thinking of people in your sphere of influence through social media, fundraising campaigns, and/or speaking opportunities! Your efforts will directly increase the ministry impact World Compassion makes in nations hostile to the Gospel. Through your voice, you will help train emerging leaders in restricted nations, provide aid for refugees in the Middle East, plant churches as well as rescue and raise orphans in Burma.
We’re not looking for professional speakers. We simply want to connect with those of you who desire to do more than just give and pray. We’re looking for those who have a passion to respond to the needs of people and the opportunities we have to advance God’s church in countries like Iraq, Iran, Burma, China and more.
World Compassion will provide you with all the necessary training and resources to make you an effective advocate.
