What to expect?

A trustworthy channel to bring about your dream for a more human society.
The chance to collaborate with a wide variety of other partners in our shared mission. Typically, volunteers describe their involvement with L’Arche as: ‘inspiring’, ‘challenging’, ‘horizon-expanding’ and ‘fun.’
Opportunities to join in community activities such as celebrations and birthdays.
A clearly defined role as a volunteer, with built-in reviews, in dialogue with the local community or national office.
L'Arche attracts a –perhaps surprisingly – diverse range of people, faiths, philosophies and ‘seekers’; you can expect full respect for your own outlook on life as well as many openings to explore the rich spirituality of other members of L’Arche.
