Sports Missionary

The Position

Are you passionate about sports ministries? Do you have a heart and burden to reach athletes through sports ministries with the truths and promises of God’s Word? Our team is looking for flexible, open-minded, relational and self-starting families, professionals, college grads and/or interns with an existing track record for sports ministries.

If you have been active in sports ministries, and have seen that sports are powerful tools for sharing God’s game-changing love, and you want to make a difference in someone’s life for eternity, then Brazil has opportunities for you.

The Need

About 75 percent of Brazilians identify as Catholic. In the last three decades Brazil has also grown to be the largest Pentecostal nation of the world. Only four percent of the 200 million people claim to be non-Pentecostal Evangelical believers. In Southern Brazil, less than two percent of people identify as Christians. In 2015, the nation of Brazil entered into a widespread economic crisis. The financial recession is real, crime is high, and the overall morale, at times, can be very low. We are praying that God will use this difficulty to soften hearts, open eyes to the Gospel and give many hope in desperate times. Will you join us?

We seek individuals to partner with missionaries and Brazilian nationals on the ground to share the gospel, plant and multiply local churches, train leaders, and ultimately, assist Brazilians to continue fulfilling the Great Commission by sending out their own people as missionaries.

The Impact

Use your passion for sports ministries to help fulfill the Great Commission. As Christians, Jesus has called us to go and make disciples of all nations, and we believe that process isn’t completed until these disciples are gathered into a local community of believers: a church. Church planting is the heartbeat of evangelism, and it’s at the core of who we are and what we do. It’s hard work, but for those called to the challenge, there is no greater reward on earth than watching a community of believers grow in their faith, and begin to understand their own role in the Great Commission. What are you waiting for?
