Field cost: $940 plus round trip airfare, immunizations, required travel insurance, passport & visa costs, etc. The people of Far Village are very warm and hospitable. They have heard several stories and are asking very thought provoking questions about the Bible, but there are no believers in the village yet. The Bambara team is short-handed. People are eagerly waiting to hear and learn about God but no one is here to teach them. We are working together with our national partners to reach those who do not yet believe. Your primary job will be to live in Far Village sharing stories with those open to listen and who are interested. You will accomplish this goal though using two story sets completed in the heart language of the people. These stories are recorded and you will play them then ask a series of questions. Our national partners will work with you to further spread the message and disciple new believers in Far Village and this area. You will be doing life-on-life in the village with the people which in itself speaks volumes to them. |

sub-sahara: english in africa113131 Team of 4 (2 guys/2 girls) FULL!!!
Field expense: $1719 plus round trip airfare, immunizations, required travel insurance, passport & visa costs, etc. Students will be involved in ministry based out of the Grand Yoff Baptist Center in Dakar, Senegal.

Volunteers will also be expected to spend time in the community of Grand Yoff. They will explore strategies in story-telling and evangelism, visit in homes, and build relationships with the community. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to learn basics in the local language and implement that in ministry and relationship building. There will also be room to utilize special gifts and talents of student volunteers as means for effective ministry. sub-sahara: urban discovery & engagement113240 Team of 4 (2 guys/2 girls) FULL!!
Field cost: $2231 plus round trip airfare, immunizations, required travel insurance, passport & visa costs, etc. The unreached and unengaged are among the millions in our city. Help us discover these peoples and be one of the first to engage them with the gospel. Your work will give us a better picture of our city and inform strategy moving forward. Our city is one of the fastest growing in Africa and is as diverse as any urban center. It is clear that God has brought the Nations to our city but we must first discover who they are & where they live. You will be face to face with peoples from across our country, region, and the world as you wind your way through the myriad of dusty streets & neighborhoods conducting informal interviews with a mobile device. Each interview will give the opportunity to share your story & shine the light of Christ into the darkness. You'll work with a national believer, who will serve as translator, during the project & have the opportunity to build lasting bonds of friendship & grow one another's faith. Research you conduct will begin to paint a clearer picture of our city & will be a key component of a comprehensive urban strategy to see a network of churches radically transforming our city through the power of the gospel. FOR ALL ASSIGNMENTS, your first stop will be a joint orientation with other Nehemiah Teams, learning the skills you need to carry out your assignment. You will then travel to the field to spend your summer carrying out the task you've prepared for. At the end of the summer, travel back to a joint debrief, sharing all that God has done. It is required that all participants attend orientation & debrief.
