Due to the growing interest of WBC attendees to participate in short-term mission to places and for lengths of time above and beyond those offered through the Global Outreach & Local Impact Ministry, we have endorsed the following mission agencies and their opportunities for individuals to pursue on their own. Some of them are led or directed by our WBC missionaries and some are serving ministries that we partner with or recommend. Contact Susan (630.876.6685) for more information.
Teach at an International School
Are you interested in taking your passion for education to an international school for one - two years or more? Be a light in a place where few people have ever met a Christian, or serve the local missionary community by providing an excellent education for their children, or both! Visit one of these websites: www.rce-international.org, www.nics.org, http://missionteach.com or www.teachoverseas.org or contact Global Outreach for recommendations of international schools in many countries. Would you consider participating in God's global mission in this strategic way?
Greece
Would you consider serving in global mission with your gift of administration (for a few weeks to one year)? WBC missionaries Johnathan and Miriam Macris and Mike and Peggy Lowe with Hellenic Ministries need YOU as they seek Christ for Greece and the Nations!
