A leader to grow a ministry among the diaspora in Anchorage, Alaska.

Country: Alaska, SEND North, US (Immigrants & Refugees)

Tasks:

Anchorage has been identified as one of the most diverse cities in the US. Opportunities abound to engage immigrants, refuges, and people from unreached people groups.

Team Leadership – Provide vision, encouragement, and accountability to other members of SEND North’s Diaspora Ministries Team.
Disciple-Making Ministry – SEND North’s vision is to “Make Northern Disciple-Makers.” Our future Diaspora Ministries Coordinator will take great delight in personally investing in cross-cultural, disciple-making relationships.

Specific Qualifications:

Cross-cultural ministry experience, preferably in urban centers
A strong drive to network with God’s people across denominational lines
The ability to organize and teach cross-cultural ministry training events for volunteers
A passion for seeing people come to faith in Jesus, join in church fellowship, and become disciple-makers themselves
