The Position
Humble. Teachable. Loves Jesus. Loves others. These are the first things we list when someone asks what we look for in future teammates. Does it sound like you?
Our young and growing team is always looking for interns who have a passion for the Great Commission and have a pioneering spirit. Interns who serve with us can expect to get a comprehensive understanding of the great need for laborers in our region, lots of time “on the ground” sharing the gospel with the lost in our city and many opportunities to serve (and be served by) our existing team. Interns can also help with a variety of tasks depending on their giftings and where they want to serve. Lastly, our location is rich in culture, languages, religions and fun! Interning with our team would be a blessing for anyone who is considering a long-term call to the nations, particularly in an Asian context.
Applicants must be humble, flexible and generous with their time and heart. They should be known as trustworthy, helpful and mature by their home churches. We would want an intern to have a spirit of planting roots within our team while they are with us. Interns must overall have a heart to share the gospel and to encourage and help equip believers. Must also complete all required trainings and readings for both ABWE and our field as well.
The Need
We serve in a multicultural and multireligious city. Our focus is a Muslim people group who are under Shariah Law and do not have access to the gospel and cannot attend any above ground church. There is a sizable number of national Christians in the country, however, due to a variety of racial, social and economic factors, they largely are afraid or unwilling to reach out to their Muslim neighbors and colleagues. Warm, but skeptical, our target people group requires patient, long term evangelists in their lives who are willing to take the time to know them and look for opportunities to share the hope of the Gospel.
The Impact
Visas and platforms may vary on our team, but our hearts are unified by one driving goal – to make Christ known to those who have no access and to equip and encourage national believers to do the same. In the future, our team expects to spread into multiple teams throughout the country and provide a gospel light to urban, suburban and rural regions.
