Opportunities to serve

Rift Valley Academy (RVA) Dorm Parent
Short Term
Kenya

As a Rift Valley Academy (RVA) Dorm Parent, you'll serve as part of a community of teachers and admin staff at a school of about 500 students, many of whom are the children of missionaries serving across the African continent.

Dorm Parents are expected to care for the physical, emotional, spiritual, and social needs of students. Your major responsibility is to foster a nurturing, loving, and safe home that supports the growth of RVA students in all areas.

Your work will include:
- Providing a loving, disciplined, safe atmosphere in the dorm.
- Communicating frequently with parents to keep them informed.
- Part time work during the day - tasks given based on your specific skills.

You'll have opportunity to lead dorm devotions each week, and implement biblical principals on a daily basis through your love and discipline with your students in the dorm.

You'll also have opportunities to teach Sunday School, disciple/mentor students, and bring the gospel to RVA and the local community.

We're looking for men and women with two years experience mentoring or supervising young adults (ie: camp counselor, youth ministry). In this role, you'll be covering for a Dorm Parent who is on home assignment for a period of one to two RVA terms.
