Overview: The Director of Development of Global Fellowship will lead our team to develop and implement strategic and productive marketing campaigns that will increase the relational and financial resources necessary to reach those who have not heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Global Fellowship is an excellent place to channel your passion for Jesus by championing indigenous church-planters and building a funding base for them to do the most effective work in spreading the Gospel.
What you'll be doing:
In this region of the world, Christianity is still associated with the era of European colonialism that conquered and exploited many Asian territories throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Because European Christian relations with these people groups are rooted in conquest, reaching them with the gospel is a difficult, yet restorative, opportunity.
The past two decades in this region have been encouraging. Studies indicate that the estimated 350 million Christians in the area will grow to 460 million by 2025. These areas of growth are reported as small communities scattered throughout the area, communities that desperately need leaders encouraging others to reconsider what they think they know about the Christian religion.
