Serving
As we look towards building new teams for the fall there are many opportunities to get involved. Go to spac.ca/serve to learn more.
We believe that actively serving others brings us closer to God and reminds us to love like he does. Through serving, you'll use the unique ways that God has gifted you to help create welcoming environments where he can change lives.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
We are hiring! Check out the career opportunities currently available and consider whether you might be a fit for our staff team. Alternatively, if you know someone else who might be a good fit, encourage them to apply?
