Use your professional skills and passion to the good work of God’s Kingdom.
Launched in 2016, the A-magazines are getting good reviews and have already produced many missions stories which serve the church in Africa and beyond. We have open opportunities for writers, distributors and administrative staff. This ministry is highly strategic, with many people testifying that the A-magazines are an excellent one-stop shop to find missions work by Africans documented. The ministry has developed significantly since its inception and now has the AfriGO, Allons-y, Afritwende and Afri-Ide. This has given the ministry a very wide audience across the continent.
Far more people pass through the doors of clinics and hospitals each day than the doors of churches. Come and use your healthcare skills in this mainly Muslim context and see lives impacted as you offer compassionate, holistic care in Christ's name. Our patients are usually open to prayer and there are opportunities to share gospel truths in response to their needs. We are also looking for those who can help local staff with professional development.
Partnering with other mission agencies and local believers, we create online ads that link to a website where those who are interested are able to read the Scriptures, download local-language Bible apps, watch local-language films with Christian content, and request face-to-face meetings with a local believer to talk more about Jesus and the Christian faith. Through online messaging and discernment of spiritual interest, we connect seekers with disciplers near them.
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 like-minded 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.
The Senegalese church is growing, especially among young people. We seek to be active members of local churches, supporting them by regular attendance, in prayer, and by helping with different teaching and discipling ministries as opportunities arise. Talk to us to find out how you could serve.
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!
Do you have skills in finance, administration, or human resources management? Do you wish you could use those skills to help reach people who are living and dying without Christ? Come and join our team in Senegal! You could choose to live in the lively capital city or a smaller city a couple of hours away, both of which are home to several team members and have local churches that would welcome your involvement.
If you have a heart for young adults who do not know the Lord, come and join the team at our Youth Training Centre, in a small city in West Africa. We are especially looking for someone to teach English as an additional language, but also have opportunities to give vocational training in all kinds of other areas: cookery, sewing, computer, etc. Do you have a unique skill? The centre extends beyond teaching and provides a place where young people can read, study or simply relax with friends in a homey environment, giving an excellent opportunity to build relationships through which the good news can be shared.
The Sports Friends staff train local church-based coaching teams with the goal that they will eventually become sustainable sports ministry programmes fully managed and funded by the church. Our goal is to train and equip the Senegalese church in a sustainable, reproducible way that will allow the local churches to impact their communities for years to come.
