Hospitality Services

Volunteers play a very vital role in the smooth operation of a General Conference Session. During the ten days of the Session, thousands of visitors from around the world will attend and participate in the activities planned for them. For many, this will be their first attendance at a Session, as well as their first visit to Toronto. It will be the work of the volunteers to make their stay a pleasant one.

Volunteers will give directions, answer inquiries and provide information regarding the services that are available within the venues of the Session or nearby in the city of Toronto. They will be stationed at information booths and kiosks throughout the Metro Toronto Convention Centre and the Skydome. Some will be mobile, making themselves available to visitors needing assistance. Because inquiries and applications have come from around the world, it is anticipated that visitors should be able to find a volunteer to communicate with in their language of choice. Volunteers will be easily identifiable, wearing a bright red vest with a large white maple leaf on the back.

These people are volunteers in the truest sense of the word. Even though they are responsible for all of their expenses to travel to and stay in Toronto, they are still willing to donate their time and effort to help insure the smooth operation of this big Church event. It is exciting to know that God's people are willing to rise to the occasion when their assistance is needed. [Ralph Janes]
