Opportunities to Serve

Do you have skills in finance, administration, or human resources management? Do you wish you could use those skills to help reach people who are living and dying without Christ? Come and join our team in Senegal! You could choose to live in the lively capital city or a smaller city a couple of hours away, both of which are home to several team members and have local churches that would welcome your involvement.

We do local church trainings on mission, lead short-term mission trips, and come alongside local churches to send out their own mission workers. Our personnel needs include people passionate about mobilising for mission to train local churches and people who can help organise and run short-term mission trips.

We are looking for people to join our SIM Benin Togo leadership and services team to help care for our cross-cultural workers, staff and local partners. Do you have skills in finance, including the preparation of annual budgets and local tax reports? Or skills in pastoral care, as we seek to visit and support our workers regularly? Come and use these gifts to help our workers and local partners flourish in a wide variety of settings, including ministries among least reached people groups and the next generation. Our admin team is based in a rural city and a working knowledge of French would be helpful.

Formerly named 'Equipping Kenyan Churches for Mission', this ministry engages Kenyan churches through training and resource mobilisation to create committed and accountable partners.

Are you a doctor, nurse, dentist, physiotherapist, health educator, occupational therapist, speech therapist, or allied health care worker looking to bring Christ's healing touch to people in great need? SIM Nigeria has many opportunities in hospitals, clinics — in cities and in rural areas with limited access to health care — and schools for you to use your professional skills to make a difference in the physical and spiritual lives of people. We partner with Nigerian professionals in a variety of settings to train, mentor and disciple healthcare workers as well as offer direct care to people in need. Talk to us to find out more.

To be a witness of Christ's love among people suffering from sicknesses and diseases so that they place their hope in Christ.

This ministry has two key objectives: a) Equipping theological educators to effectively teach and disciple church leaders (through training in teaching and holistic curriculum planning skills). (b) Enabling theological institutions to cross barriers to reach out to a wider student base through the offering of online programs.

Are you interested or skilled in supporting a growing church through theological education, training and mentoring, member care, institutional support services or resourcing, student ministry, church planting or extension? We have a range of opportunities to work hand-in-hand with local believers to respond to the needs and opportunities of the local church in Nigeria.

SIM Nigeria has an array of opportunities for you to use your gifts to minister to marginalised and vulnerable groups including street children, widows, orphans, those with disabilities, and the lost. These people are in communities where they are often marginalised, vulnerable, uncared for and without help. Talk to us to find out more. We are looking for educational consultants, medical consultants, vocational trainers, social workers, business consultants, agricultural and animal husbandry consultants, counselors, trauma healers, and community workers to reach people with Christ’s love that transforms lives and holistically meets the very real needs of hurting people.

Despite the many ongoing efforts by many organizations and individuals to respond to needs of vulnerable children and families, there is not much to show. Many of the ministries responding to these needs are lacking in best practices and therefore not very effective or efficient. Many are working in isolation struggling to find resources to do the work. Greater unity, sensitization, equipping, networking, collaboration and coordination among organizations working with vulnerable families is required if there is to be any improvement. The government is aware that even dedicated Christian projects are not better and they are also doing unstructured and inexperienced work. Though very keen to grow and progress they may not have access to training and resources. Children at Risk Network walks alongside these other groups to help transform the situation by developing their capacity to effectively and efficiently love, care for, protect and disciple children. As a wise person said, a strong desire to make change must be coupled with the capacity to make that change. Many faith organizations are well aware that it is not enough to just have a big heart to serve, but individuals, churches and Christian organizations must also invest time and resources in developing their capacity to do ministry using best practices. We are convinced that the church should be in the forefront in responding to issues affecting their communities. However, Christians are often seen as having a good heart but being oblivious to society’s needs. If the work of the Church is leading the way to lasting change for children and the community at large, it will be respected. The Church was not previously equipped to deal with social issues. Through training and sensitization efforts by SIM Kenya Children at Risk Network, the past perceptions and attitudes of pastors are changing, and they now desire to be equipped to deal with spiritual and professional issues to be included in the common agenda with the government and other agencies to obtain support and reduce any sense of isolation that is usually felt. Healthy relationships and cross-pollination with other SIM Kenya ministries have been borne much fruit and many children have been impacted positively. We are taking advantage of these relationships to enhance our ministry efforts. UNICEF Statistics of Young People connected to Streets and trafficking 100 million globally, 360000+ in Kenya. Nairobi, Mombasa, Kilifi and Lamu are preferred by vulnerable children as easy life opportunity host hubs, hence young people engage in street connection and young people trafficking is very high.
