Our country is beautiful, with a rich Christian history, despite being 99% Muslim. The secular government means that there is freedom of religion and churches can operate but the Muslim demographic can occasionally mean some opposition. People are very open! Insecurity from the pandemic has created a spiritual hunger. Our team is based in the largest city in the country which has approximately 20 million people.
Our team is known for its boldness in doing creative arts on the streets, offering the good news of the Gospel in an attractive and engaging format. We partner with local churches to see people we meet through performances followed up, and several churches in the country were planted by gathering our connections into an initial small group!
We believe in being culturally sensitive and are committed to learning the local language as much as possible. We are passionate about reaching Muslims in general and partner not only with ministries in our country but other countries that want to reach Muslims there.
Goers in this position will use their marketing and social media skills in two different ways:
One--to recruit and generate prayer for our outreaches and events. There is a worldwide community praying while we minister! You will be the one sharing the pictures, and stories and generating the prayer.
Two--to oversee the social media engagement we do to follow up with contacts and see people come to faith. We have different Facebook and Instagram pages for this and would like to develop other things as well. You would be the one to engage with our interested contacts.
As a team, we are frequently on the road and future team members should enjoy traveling and meeting new people. We'll always make sure you have internet access, ready to engage with what is happening at our outreaches and events. You'll travel to other countries to be part of outreaches there, too.
There are so many skills required for marketing/social media engagement and no one can have all of them - we know that!
Writing, photography, graphic design, internet skills - all are needed but you focus on your strengths and others on the team can help fill the gaps.
