Residency: Central Asia Student Outreach (11 MONTHS)

Description

Are you ready to share your lives and the gospel with Central Asian university students? We are seeking motivated individuals who are eager to reach the unreached by sharing their lives and faith. You will study the local language part-time at a university and help teach conversational English to students on campus.

Your role will be to build friendships with students and take advantage of opportunities God provides to share spiritual truths. Find creative ways to build relationships, such as organizing classes, trips to the mountains, game nights, and sporting events. In the middle of your term, you will draw on your experiences to help lead the summer teams from the States in reaching local students with the Good News. You will then play an important role in pursuing relationships with local students that were built over the summer.

You will work alongside full-time workers who will offer discipleship, encouragement, and training. You can help reach the next generation of Central Asian peoples.
