Individual Volunteer Mission Opportunities

One of the practical ways of engaging in mission is through a short-term mission experience. If you would like to serve for a longer period, the Individual Volunteer Program sponsored by  Global Ministries can help you accomplish that.  The program offers opportunities for individuals and couples to serve in mission from two months to two years in a variety of placements around the world. One placement site that is in need of a volunteer is Open Doors, Inc., a Church World Service agency that provides support for incoming refugees who were forced to leave their home countries. It is located in Sacramento, California. Another placement site is Colegio Metodista Piracicabano in Brazil. They are seeking an English teacher for primary and secondary schools. The volunteer will assist in teaching as well as promote and design cultural workshops. To learn more about these volunteer opportunities as well as many more, please visit website www.individualvolunteers.info.  Please apply now through this website and plan on attending our next training and orientation, which will be in Nashville, Tn. May 13-16, 2015.  Our deadline is rapidly approaching, so please contact Malcolm Frazier at mfrazier@umcmission.org or call 212 870-3659.
