Become a Missions Advocate – Church

Are you passionate about reaching the unreached? Are you searching for opportunities to share your passion for global missions with others to help advance the Great Commission? If so, you may want to become a Missions Advocate for World Team.

Founded in 1873, World Team is a global agency serving on six continents. Our vision is to be innovative teams multiplying disciples and communities of believers, bringing the Gospel within reach of lost people everywhere we go.

As a Missions Advocate, you will use your time, energy, and skills to promote global missions right where you live, particularly in your local church.

Q: What will be expected of me?
A: As a Missions Advocate, you will champion missions in your local area and church. Your role will be to invite people to take next steps in missions by sharing your passion for how God is moving the gospel to the ends of the earth. Specifically, you will:

  • Creatively make ‘space’ for sharing global opportunities in small groups, events, mission team meetings, Perspective classes, etc.
  • Meet regularly with people who are interested in missions and connect them to your World Team mobilizer to discuss next steps.
  • Help with events World Team organizes with your church or in your area.
  • Promote prayer for the unreached.

Q: What can I expect of World Team?
A: A World Team Mobilizer will mentor you and support your role as Missions Advocate. Specifically, your Regional Mobilizer will:

  • Meet with you on a regular basis, encouraging you in your walk with the Lord and inviting you to dive deeper into the world of global missions.
  • Communicate with you about World Team’s history, vision, updates from various fields, and concrete opportunities for people to serve.
  • Provide you with online and print materials that can help you to promote global missions.

Q: Will I be trained for this task and role?
A: Yes! Training is a crucial part of this endeavor. Specifically, we plan to:

  • Explain in detail what missions means for us at World Team and what kind of people we are looking for to become future missionaries.
  • Provide you with a variety of resources, to include prayer resources, learning resources, mission courses, and book recommendations.
  • Expose you to topics such as the biblical basis of missions, needs among the unreached, and discipleship—as well as connecting you with classes that cover relevant missions content.
