VOLUNTARY SERVICE

In Elijah’s fiery chariot

Come and volunteer for the prophet school of Elijah!

Who are prophets and prophetesses? Someone who breaks out to find themselves and God — and then returns transformed to fight for justice. As volunteers, Father Georg Sporschill SJ and Ruth Zenkert will listen to your ideas, recognise your potential, and support you wherever you are needed. This will enable you to forge your own path. If you would like to join us in making a difference in this world, please get in touch. Please download our information brochure and an application form.

Please fill in and send to office.wien@elijah.at. We will arrange the next steps with you. Maybe a week in Romania to give you time to decide?
