Pilgrims, Volunteers & Family
Supporting adult volunteers, family ministry and pilgrim groups for spiritual growth and service.
About the Department
The Pilgrims, Volunteers and Family Ministry of Scripture Union (Nig.) Ahoada Area is dedicated to equipping and supporting adult volunteers, strengthening Christian families, and nurturing Pilgrims Fellowships for continuous spiritual growth and effective service.
We believe that every volunteer is vital to the fulfilment of God's work. Through training, discipleship, fellowship, and pastoral care, we help individuals grow in their faith, discover their gifts, and serve God effectively.
The department also promotes strong Christian families, encourages active participation in ministry, and provides spiritual support and guidance to workers across our seven Local Government Areas.
Our goal is to build spiritually mature believers, strengthen godly families, and raise committed volunteers who will faithfully serve God and impact their communities.
