Ministry Focus
Construction
Have you ever wondered if God use design and construction professionals?
The answer is yes! Buildings are the launch pad that allows most other ministries to exist and thrive; therefore, design and construction personnel are vital to fulfilling the Great Commission. We need skilled project managers, designers, and laborers to build hospitals, build schools, build churches, and help build the Kingdom of God.
We’re working all over the world from West Africa, to the Balkans, to Papua New Guinea. If you’re ready to use your skills for God, we’re ready to put you to work!
Use Your Design, Management, or Construction Skills in Building as Missions
With over 35 construction projects in 20 different countries and countless buildings that need maintained, we often need people to serve both short-term and long-term with the following skills:
- Project Managers/Construction Managers
- Maintenance
- Building-Related Professionals & Trades People
- Surveyors
- Architects
- Engineers
- Willingness to Learn
No matter your construction experience, if you are willing to learn on the fly and lend a hand, you can join us in building the resources missionaries use to share the gospel.
Are you passionate about using your skills to serve God’s kingdom? Whether your commitment is for one week, one month, or a lifetime, we want to talk to you!
Is God calling you to use your skills on the mission field?
