Get involved
Mission ABQ runs on the generosity and hands of volunteers. Give an hour a week or a full day — there's a place for you.
Weekly opportunities
Walk-ins are welcome on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Food distribution
Sort, pack, and hand out food boxes at ABQ Central, 8216 Central Ave SE.
Dinner & Grace Free Store
Serve a hot meal, help run the Free Store, and get to know our guests at ABQ Central.
Breakfast & food boxes
Breakfast at ABQ Central, or food distribution at the South Valley campus after worship.
Kingdom Builders & campus care
Classroom aides, activity leaders and garden helpers; painting, landscaping and upkeep at both campuses.
Groups, churches & companies
Church groups, corporate teams, school service projects — we'll plan a day of service around your group's size and skills.
Short-term mission trips
Mission ABQ hosts short-term mission teams of students and adults — groups from 15 to 150. Our motto for student teams: equipped, not entertained.
Every trip is organized but flexible, built around current needs and your team's gifts: food bank sorting and distribution, street ministry and outreach events, and work projects from campus cleanup to roof repair.
We hope every member of your team, adult sponsors included, goes home transformed.
A sample week
Internships
Hands-on urban ministry with children, youth and families, or with people facing addiction and homelessness. Interns need to be involved in a local church and bring a pastor's recommendation.
Summer internship
For current college students. Lead K–6th graders in a cross-cultural setting, or serve in food, homeless and recovery care — with training, discipleship and mentoring.
Year-long internship
For recent college graduates. One-on-one mentoring with pastors and outreach directors across family and compassionate ministries.
Path to Lead
A non-traditional internship for adult MTC students growing as leaders inside Mission ABQ programs.
