Opportunities to serve in the Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia
Language and Culture Acquisition
We equip workers with Arabic language and cultural understanding to live, serve and witness among least-reached communities across the Arab world, in interdependence with the local church.
Reaching Migrant Workers
Using professional or international church platforms, we seek to build relationships with expatriates and migrant workers from least-reached countries in order to share love and truth, make disciples and equip/mobilise believers to be witnesses to their hosts, among compatriots and in their home countries. There are professional openings in a variety of areas, especially engineering, IT, teaching and healthcare – including hospital positions for physicians, nurses, midwives and more.
Serving Refugees and the Displaced
We'd love to welcome those with a heart for sharing life marginalised displaced, refugee and migrant communities in the Middle East. After initial investment in language study, there are a range of options for serving in partnership with local churches and ministries, contributing to educational, development, vocational training and discipleship programmes.
