In a small Northern Brazilian town sits a university that hosts Portuguese-speaking African students. This gives anyone serving among these students several years of opportunity to build deep relationships with them leading to gospel conversations. If you’ve served among university students before, have a heart for the unreached, and if you’re ready and willing to get creative in ministry, this opportunity could be for you!
You’ll be involved in the local Brazilian church, helping mobilize the church for student outreach. You can visit students in their homes, invite them into yours, and maybe even teach them mini-courses in topics that serve them well. There are so many opportunities to begin new outreach ministries to reach these students. The students love making new friends, and the Christian students are strongly in need of support and discipleship. By investing in these students, you also have the chance to impact the continent of Africa with the gospel once the students return home.
*A knowledge of Portuguese is helpful but can be learned in Brazil.
Borderless is a ministry initiative of Africa Inland Mission. Borderless works with local churches in cross-cultural mission, reaching African immigrants and refugees who are building new lives in our communities.
