Volunteer

The Love Story office buzzes daily with volunteers from all over the world. We love welcoming anyone and everyone who shares in our passion to serve others wholeheartedly. Each person who has volunteered with us has been so much more than just an extra pair of hands. Our volunteers are people who become family and friends that we are sad to see go. It is a pleasure for us to add to our growing family and we look forward to receiving so many more with open arms!

We welcome assistance in the form of time, resource or finance. Wherever your heart lies, we will meet you there. Whether you want to join us at our city center soup kitchen, accompany us in distributing food in the townships, or prepare food in the Love Story kitchen, we want to meet you and get you in on all the action!

“Working with Love Story allowed me to see and love people like Christ. Whether delivering food to townships or visiting women in the hospital or feeding the homeless, Love Story serves and loves people so well.”

JARREN TEMPLETON

“I started working with Love Story 4 years ago with Papa Luke and the rest of the team. It’s been an honour for me to serve at Love Story. Since then l have never looked back and l have grown so much spiritually and l now view life from a different angle. I love working with everybody in the streets as well as the staff at Love Story, they treat me with so much respect like a motherly figure and for that l am grateful.”

MAMA T

“I had the chance to volunteer at Love Story for ten weeks in 2019. I worked together with the local workers in the kitchen, visited bible studies and fed homeless people. The spirit and familiar atmosphere of Love Story is amazing. I learned so much about the South African culture and the life of my workmates that it definitely changed my mindset and view of life. Since then I returned to Love Story for six more weeks. It felt like coming home to my second family. Everyone accepts you, doesn’t matter where you are from or which culture you belong to.”

PASCAL BURKHARDT

“Spending a month helping the volunteers and staff at Love Story showed me what acting in obedience to the Holy Spirit looks like; I experienced true sacrifical love, pure worship and adoration, and authentic fellowship and discipleship. The nightly City Feeds and parcel deliveries to creches in local townships were perfect examples of being the Church to those in need, and made my time at LS one of the sweetest and most treasured months of my life.” ALEXA BARATUCCI

“Being a volunteer at Love Story was an inspiring journey of care and connecting with a team that lived the principles of love, patience, sincerity and pride in always placing others first.”

HEMA RAJKUMAR

“Love Story does an amazing job of being the hands and feet of Jesus to the community of Port Elizabeth. Our team loved getting to know the staff (who ended up feeling like family) and getting to serve in many different ways.” ASHLEY VARGAS
