Associate Youth Worker - Ghana (Less than a year)
Youth are nearly one half the population of Ghana and the future of the Bible Church of Africa (BCA). This situation presents a perfect opportunity for someone with passion and energy to participate confidently with the church and Body of Christ in Ghana. Many Ghanaian youth have the fire to do something for Christ but need some help and encouragement. Could God use you to work with young people, pastors, and church leaders to encourage and deepen spiritual growth? Have a look at the video and listen to what Ruby Mikulencak, The SIM Director in Ghana, has to say about this role.

Conversational English teachers (university outreach) -- Thailand
Thai students love to practise their English. The main role of everyone involved at The Centre is friendship evangelism. This means teaching conversational English, and arranging activities and events that will help build relationships and present opportunities to share Christ. Students who become Christians are discipled and connected with local Thai Christian churches, so they will grow in their faith. Many continue to be involved in The Centre, reaching out to fellow students themselves.
   A complete conversational English programme is already in place at The Centre; you only need to be a native English speaker to teach the course. Various activity nights, such as Western cooking and a Friday night party, create an environment where students can join in the fun and hear the gospel too. If you have a heart for students and friendship evangelism, this may be the opportunity for you.

Bible school teachers/theologians – Mongolia
One of the key needs of the Church in Mongolia is more trained leaders. The Union Bible Theological College (UBTC) is helping to meet that need by training Mongolians for ministry among their own people and also beyond their borders. This strategic school produces leaders who will strengthen the Church and enlarge the outreach of Mongolian believers.
   Being a part of the staff of UBTC means having a direct influence in shaping the Church in Mongolia. The students are keen to learn, and enthusiastic to take their new skills and training back to their communities to build up the body of believers there. There are opportunities for Bible teachers and theologians with appropriate experience. Along with in-class duties, teachers and theologians will be able to get involved in student life through mentoring and discipling.
