Spend three weeks learning how to share the gospel with Africans living in Europe with experienced workers.
Background
Millions of Africans live outside of Africa, in North America, Europe, and around the globe – the African diaspora. Reaching out to these populations, and others like them, is called diaspora ministry.
Ministry and type of work
Dream teams run for two weeks and will allow you to experience ‘hands on’ diaspora ministry through partnership with local organisations. You will be equipped to share the good news of Jesus in an intentional manner alongside your teammates, while serving vulnerable communities in practical ways. You’ll build friendships with refugees and immigrants who have turned to Europe to find hope and a better life. Many of the people you meet will come from a Muslim background and you may be their first Jesus following friend. DREAM Teams are an excellent way to gain experience in serving people of other cultures as you grow your understanding of the complexities and challenges immigrants face as they move to seek a brighter future. You will also be encouraged as you partner with local Christians who demonstrate their love for Jesus, through a generous spirit of hospitality and a commitment to make Him known to others.
