Volunteer

The Legacy 685 Volunteer team is affectionately called the “O Team.” We find in 2 Tim 1:16 these words, “May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorius, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains.” This team of volunteers fulfills a variety of needs to help support foster families in the day-to-day demands of life. Onesiphorus means “bringing profit” or “useful.” We seek to practically assist foster families to refresh them and encourage them not to grow weary in doing good. “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Gal 6:9 The O Team provides two distinct paths of service, Direct and Indirect.
