Church planting in Munich, the most neglected metropolitan city in Germany

Germany is the number one European country for refugees and migrants, particularly in the Catholic city of Munich in the south, where about one quarter of the inhabitants (1.5 million people) are migrants. Arab people also come for hospital treatment or recreation. More workers are urgently needed! We want to see new international churches for the migrants in Munich and to support the already-running ministries. We have a lot of socially-oriented work, including homework help for schoolchildren, music lessons, creative art courses, food care for the poor, youth and children's work, and ministry to adults. All of these point people to Jesus. Evangelists are very much needed in Munich, as are people who can organise and coordinate teams of up to 30 volunteers.

Church planting in the Ruhr area, a neglected metropolitan area in Germany

The Ruhr area, located in the federal state of Northrhine-Westfalia, is the largest metropolitan area in Germany. It has a population of 5.1 million and is spread over 53 cities. It has the highest migrant density in Germany, from every nation. In our conservative evangelical international church plant we need faithful preachers, servants and house meeting group leaders who can give discipleship to new believers. We also have outreach groups, who run book tables, and need evangelists to lead new people from all nations to faith in Jesus.

Children and Youth

In Namibia, approximately 60 per cent of the population is under 25. There are considerable generational and cultural barriers to reaching young people with the gospel. Through partnering with the local church, we desire to see this generation of children and youth become lifelong followers of Christ. Personnel opportunities include teaching in schools (both short-term and long-term), community development projects to help with skill development, and training local church children and youth workers.

MK education

Do you like working with children and teenagers? We are looking for qualified school teachers, as well as those who could work in auxiliary roles such as dorm parenting, finance and admin, to enable families from SIM and likeminded organisations to stay on the field, knowing that their children's educational needs can be met. We place staff and interns at Dakar Academy (https://www.dakar-academy.org), and may also have opportunities for homeschool teachers. Dakar Academy has a Christian ethos, but welcomes children from all backgrounds, so there are opportunities both to disciple those from Christian families and also to share the good news with those who haven't heard.

English Teaching Centre

We are looking for native English speakers to join our team in a large city, teaching English as an additional language to university students and others. Classes are based around a secular curriculum but you would have opportunities to share wisdom from the Bible and discuss with students. You can also facilitate 'drop-in' sessions on discussion topics of your choice. You will get to know students better and build friendships through our social events and day camps. This work provides great opportunities to interact with open-minded, inquiring young people and share the message of the Bible with them in culturally appropriate ways!
