How You Can Help CARVA Succeed
As CARVA begins its exciting journey within the Automotive Recycling Industry, we have opportunities for Christian businessmen and women to help us reach two goals: 1.To connect Christians in the industry to each other. 2. To share Jesus Christ with the Automotive Recycling Industry. Some ways to help CARVA are to:
Pray for us - lift this ministry up in prayer. The Bible says, “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” (James 5:16 KJV).
Give Financially to make CARVA’s mission possible. CARVA is a 501c3 non-profit organization, financed solely by contributions, and governed by an unpaid board of directors. “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Cor. 9:7 ESV). Our current financial needs are: CARVA needs money for attending industry events, for CARVA exhibit booths at industry events, including CARVA materials and handouts.
Volunteer - to represent CARVA at upcoming industry trade shows and events. “As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.” (1 Peter 4:1- ESV)
Be a Board Member - we are looking for godly Christian men and women to serve on the CARVA Board of Directors. They will serve a three year term with a third of the board rotated off each year. Board meetings are held four times a year (in-person or online) with more called as needed.
Be a CARVA Chaplain - We need them for each section of the country. They will be available to pray at industry events or wherever they are called upon to do so. They will be available to speak. They will act as liaison to local churches and provide immediate, temporary, help for people in crisis, but find a local church pastor to provide ongoing help.
Executive Director - We are hoping to find one when the time is right and the qualified person becomes available. CARVA’s founder and president, Mike French, is the temporary executive director until then.
