Description

A Kids Alive Overseas Missionary works on behalf of vulnerable children in our schools, care centers, or residential homes. The missionary serves the needs of the ministry using their gifts, experiences, and skills.

Missionaries are expected to learn the local language of the ministries in which they are serving to some extent, and to dedicate some time specifically to this effort. Beyond that, each ministry has different requirements as to the language level they expect missionaries to reach.

This is a missionary position for which the individual raises funds for their salary and expenses.

For couples and families:
Missionaries are a part of Kids Alive in two ways: they can fulfill a work role, but they also part of the Kids Alive Christian community of faith. They represent Kids Alive and, more importantly, Christ as they live and work in the communities where they are placed. Therefore, we request that each spouse apply separately for missionary service, even if one spouse will not have a determined work role with Kids Alive.





All Kids Alive missionaries must demonstrate the following skills and characteristics:
In faith life:
- Agree with our statement of faith
- Have a living and growing relationship with Jesus Christ
- Demonstrate spiritual and emotional maturity, with a well-formed sense of identity in Jesus Christ
- Be active participants in a Christ-professing church/community of faith
- Have experience using their spiritual gifts and skills to serve their local church/community of faith

In personal and social life:
- Have the willingness and humility to learn a new language, culture, and way of life
- Demonstrate social maturity and the ability to form and grow relationships
- Demonstrate the ability to resolve conflict in a Biblical manner, with grace and patience
- Patiently adapt to continuously changing situations and people
- Demonstrate a humble willingness to work under local leadership in the country of ministry
