The Position
We are offering an essentially safe, affordable, practical ministry for anyone wondering if overseas missions is for them. Located right downtown in Bangkok, Thailand, people who come here will be involved in at the Baptist Student Center for3 months, with a 2 week break that allows you to travel to others fields if you desire. There is a Thai language school across the street, and housing/food is offered at the BSC. Classes will be taught in the evening.
Haven’t taught before? No problem, we can offer training. Ministries outside of teaching will include being involved in relational evangelism with students outside the classroom and outreach events on Friday nights.
The Need
The Baptist Student Center relies heavily on teachers who are willing and able to meet and build relationships with students outside of the classroom, and who have a desire to share the gospel. Basically, if you’re excited about other cultures and you like to eat good food (maybe a bit spicy sometimes, but you’ll get used to it, we promise), well then you’re a pretty good fit here.
The Impact
Thailand is less than .5% Christian. Many, many Thais come to faith through English ministries. Evangelism is the first step! As our team continues to learn the language and build relationships for the purpose of discipleship and church planting, we need to be able to “cast a wide net” for the gospel. That being said, we do believe that this internship is still very practical for people who are still not sure what country they might end up in, and are just wanting to see if they can make life overseas work.
