Member Care Personnel PRF Nr. 9231 please mention if interested
SIM Niger’s missionaries serve in a wide variety of ministries in several locations across the country. The purpose of SIM Niger is to make disciples where Christ is least known. Making disciples in a country that is 99% Muslim, extremely hot, one of the poorest in the world, and which is sometimes politically tense, means stress is something we constantly deal with. In addition to that, we work on cross-cultural teams with people we don't always understand. Having a good member care team is essential to having a thriving group of missionaries in Niger, so that the work of crossing barriers to take the good news to those who are living and dying with out Jesus can be done effectively.
