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.

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.

Equipping the Church for Mission through Business as Mission.

Many Christian traders, employees and entrepreneurs do not know their daily work matters to God. They are his ambassadors for Christ in and through their work, Genesis 1:28, 2:15, Matthew 25:14-30, and Matthew 28:18-20. Our ministry aims to train and mentor this 'missing' frontline army of God in the northern regions of Ghana that God values them and that their daily work is to worship him and is missional.

Outreach and discipleship - Dagomba, Sisaala and Fulani.

Dependent on the Holy Spirit through prayer, SIM Ghana workers engage with these three focus peoples in love, working together with our Ghanaian brothers and sisters, to share the good news of God in both word and deed, in the language of the peoples and in culturally relevant ways. We work together to disciple those who come to faith, towards a growing, vibrant and transforming relationship with Jesus through their integration into Christ centred churches, or in fellowship together in ways that celebrate God within the communities He has placed them. Our desire is to work with the peoples to identify the giftings God has given them to be all that He created them to be and to work together for the physical, spiritual and emotional flourishing of the people.
