Mission Builders of the ELCA

is a mission outreach ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The Mission Builder Program helps
established ELCA congregations and institutions that are willing to undertake the  responsibility for the construction of their own facilities to save money on their building programs in a cost effective manner. This program is specific to individuals& couples wishing to be involved in Christian service at related churches, camps, and social ministries, and on occasion as management supervisors of other volunteers doing disaster response work. Spouses are welcome to participate as construction workers, or to become involved in congregational or local volunteer outreach activities.
This is an “interdenominational group”. Projects in the past have ranged from $150K- $4.5 Million, the structures may take from three to nine months to complete, usually beginning early May and typically are completed before November 1st. During this time, new project volunteers capable of demanding physical construction activities are welcome to come and work for a period as little as one week or longer. Participant’s who work shorter periods of time (Less than a month) will be onsite on a volunteer basis, and receive no
remuneration, other than a full RV hook up, and are required to sign a waiver, of liability for the organization for whom the building is being constructed, to participate.

After one month individuals, deemed capable of doing this demanding physical labor may become paid employees of the church, camp, or social ministry for whom the structure is being constructed and will receive the states prevailing minimum wage and be covered by Workman’s Compensation. We typically work 40 hours per week, (Tuesday- Saturday).

The organizations (Churches, Camps, and Social ministries) you are working for are responsible for providing RV parking and utilities. Depending on the projects, the RVer may park in a campground or in the parking lot of the church, camp or social ministry.

In situations where a Mission Builder or volunteer may be working near children or youth, the organization we are working for may require a background check. For more information please check out our website: http://www.elcamissionbuilders.org/
