A Ministry Team is a church group that comes to the OPC’s Boardwalk Chapel in Wildwood, New Jersey, to serve for a week at a time, from Saturday to Saturday, between mid-June and early September.
A Ministry Team participates in or assists the Full Time Volunteer Staff in carrying out the main activities of the Chapel which include:, training in evangelism and apologetics, engaging in evangelism on the boardwalk, distributing tracts and booklets. providing free Bibles and books, presenting the gospel through nightly programs, conducting follow-up discipleship and Bible studies when possible.
