We serve in most countries of South and Central America, either directly through SIM offices or in partnership with others who share our heart to make Jesus known where He is least known.
We’re passionate about seeing lives transformed by the gospel and people equipped to live as faithful disciples of Jesus. If you’re interested in serving in this region, we’d love to hear from you.

Opportunities to serve in South and Central America
Desarrollo de Líderes
A two-year leadership mentoring programme based on the approach established by SIM is offered to a small cohort of high-impact pastors and church leaders. Qualified and capable mentors with lived experience in the region will be matched with these leaders and their spouses. The key components of SIM’s Global Leadership Development ministry are central to this approach - Leadership Images, Mentors, Self-Directed Development and Community Learning.
Mission Leadership
Our aim is to provide visionary leadership and excellent support to the workers and staff of SIM Bolivia. If you have experience in leadership or administration and have overseas ministry or work experience, please consider this opportunity. A good level of Spanish, or a willingness to learn Spanish, is necessary. You must be willing to adapt to Bolivian culture and work with Bolivian administrative staff and workers in service of our multi-ethnic team of mission workers. You will relate to SIM workers and national church leadership.
Training Bolivian Church Planters
God is raising Bolivians with a clarion call for church planting and mission in Bolivia’s capital city, La Paz However, it is a challenge for them to find training and support from their local churches. The SIM La Paz team longs for God to establish a coalition of Bolivian churches which is biblically and financially committed to planting gospel-focused, disciple-making, missional churches. For this reason, we are providing training for church planters and their wives, as well as training for churches to ignite missional, life-on-life discipleship movements in their congregations so they can send out mature and equipped believers who are passionate about declaring and demonstrating the gospel, whether across the street or around the world. The SIM La Paz team needs discipleship and church-planting trainers and a person to mobilise churches and individual believers toward missional living and giving.
