Church Planting

God is opening doors. Seeds have been planted. Now the people are responding. Come be a part of this harvest. The Yao people of northern Mozambique are a people closed to the gospel and without a strong community of believers. The direct goal of many on our team is to see the raising up of a vibrant church body among the Yao both in the city and in rural areas. We are looking for pioneers and adventurers willing to step into a culture and new language in order to reach a people group where God is at work.

A masters in theological education does not yet exist in country. In efforts to build up and train church leade - a theological training school in Lichinga, northern Mozambique.

Equipping Believers For Mission

As the church grows and matures, the natural transition is for churches to begin to reach out and evangelise others, taking charge of their own growth and expansion. We desire to equip the church as it expands both its focus and by facilitating traditional outreach opportunities through mentoring, teaching and cooperative partnership; developing, translating and printing literature in local languages and providing specialised help that would not otherwise be affordable. If you are a teacher of the Bible, theology, doctrine, leadership, missiology or other related fields, or if you are gifted in translation, editing, linguistics, evangelism, radio technology, computer technology, web design, app design, teaching and have a passion for this type of work, this is the ministry for you!

Mayotte ministries

Mayotte is a very unique region of France. The native population is close to 100 per cent Muslim and, while more than 70 per cent of the local people speak fluent French as a second language, the first languages are Shimaore and the lesser spoken Kibushi. Around 50 per cent of the population is made up of illegal immigrants from the Comoros, who are also Muslim. SIM workers use business and their professions to become accepted members of the community, build relationships and eventually share the gospel in private settings. For now, SIM's workers are focussing on the native population in the south of the main island. Could you use your business or professional skills to join this team?
