Engaging believers in Missional Discipleship

By faith, we see our local churches growing and equipped for mission in our region and beyond. Help us disciple and train believers to participate in cross-cultural mission, to overcome language and religious barriers, and to share Christ with neighbours from the majority religion. Serve alongside local believers in university, youth or children’s ministry; mentor Christian leaders and businesspeople as they seek to follow Christ in their context; or join with our audio ministry in producing Christian teaching. We also invite you to serve and equip church members in the community through small business training, teacher training and community health services. Learning French and a local language allow you to engage effectively with the church community and one of the main unreached people groups in the area.

Lead and Serve the SIM Team

We are a growing multicultural team who long to see God’s kingdom grow in our region. We have good partnerships in place with other missions and churches in our area. We are working to see these relationships continue to grow for God’s glory. We are currently seeking a business administrator to work in finance and leadership, as well as a teacher to work in a homeschool co-op setting with mission children. Together, we seek to develop skills in member care and administration and would welcome those with giftings and interests in those areas. French is the language for most administrative roles. Learning an additional local language would permit you to form relationships with one of the unreached people groups in our region.

African Missions Mobilization Media

Launched in 2016, the 'A-magazines' are getting good reviews and have already produced many missions stories which serve the church in Africa and beyond. This ministry is highly strategic, with many people testifying that the A-magazines are an excellent one-stop shop to find missions work by Africans documented. The ministry has developed significantly since its inception and now has the AfriGO, Allons-y, Afritwende and Afri-Ide. This has given the ministry a very wide reception in the continent. We have open opportunities for writers, distrbutors and administrative staff.

Sports Friends Bolivia

Sport is a great way to make connections with active youth. Since more than 50 per cent of the Bolivian population is under 25, sport provides a great opportunity to build relationships with them. We are equipping local churches and church planters to use sport to make disciples of Jesus Christ among young people, their families, and their communities where Christ is least known. We’d love you to join our team! A passion for sport is a plus, but what we need more than anything are people with a heart for children and for equipping the church for mission.

Working with the Deaf and Hearing Impaired

Do you know sign language and have a heart for the deaf and hearing impaired? One of the largest unreached people groups in Bolivia is the deaf and hearing impaired community. Through our medical clinic in the city of Potosí, we have access to this community every day, but we long to be able to share the love of Jesus with them through teaching sign language, organising support groups, and caring for their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Our prayer is that the deaf and hearing impaired and their families in Potosí would come to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, learn Bolivian Sign Language, and have access to resources that will help them to flourish in all aspects of life. If you know sign language, would like to work with the deaf and hearing impaired, are a social worker, a psychologist, a counsellor, an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) specialist or a plastic surgeon, we would love to have you join our team!
