“We had 450 church members volunteer for church ministry following our first PLACE Ministry workshop! Using PLACE resources gives me the ability to correctly match ministry opportunities with each person’s unique personality, skills, passions and life experiences resulting in more effective ministry and happier volunteers.”

“After much research, I found PLACE Ministries to be a good ‘fit’ for us in so many ways. We have hosted 3 workshops in the past 7 months and ‘placed’ over 130 people in the ministries of our church. How exciting to see people for the first time in their lives to succeed and be fulfilled because of the discovery process of PLACE.”

"I am delighted to recommend PLACE Ministries. All too often congregations overlook the importance of enabling their members to know and use their spiritual gifts. PLACE addresses this issue by providing a wide array of excellent resources."

“I had taken several different types of personality and spiritual gifts assessments prior to attending the PLACE workshop. PLACE is the FIRST to actually help me understand the connection between my personality characteristics, abilities, passions, and life experiences and how it better equips me for more effective ministry.”

“PLACE Ministries and Jay McSwain are making a profound impact on the ministry of First Baptist Church. We are fully embracing the PLACE program for connecting people to ministry and we greatly appreciate the integrated approach of PLACE to examine a person in a multifaceted manner before providing feedback and ministry direction."

“It is essential as members of the
body of Christ that we find our PLACE in Him (Jesus).
PLACE Ministries
is a vital part of that process in helping us
achieve our purpose.”
Rev. Dwayne DeShields
Pastor of Ministry Development
Bethel Deliverance International Church
Philadelphia, PA
“I have found the JOY that only comes with knowing and serving HIM through serving others in the PLACE ministry. I’m re-energized and blessed every weekend when I walk through the doors of Springcreek and see so many faces filled with the joy and peace of making a difference in someone’s life. If God were ever to move us from Springcreek, my ministry would be to facilitate PLACE workshops wherever He might choose to send us. I just can’t
imagine serving in any other capacity. PLACE
is that important to me.”
Linda Dannis
PLACE Coordinator
Springcreek Community Church

"My concern is for seeing individuals use their God-given gifts and talents to minister in the local church, on their jobs, in their communities in a focused and intentional manner, with all deliberate speed, without excuse. As an educator, PLACE is the tool that has addressed many of the reservations to serve from a biblical standpoint. PLACE creates for the individual a level of confidence and self assurance that may have been lacking, but needed, in order to do ministry.
