PRAYER

Converge International Ministries recognizes that the Great Commission to the least-reached people groups can only be accomplished through fervent prayer and reliance on the power of God. As we, by faith, ask God to bring workers for the harvest who will ignite gospel movements, we see the Holy Spirit empower our teams as He promised He would in Acts 1:8. We realize that what precedes and permeates a movement is prayer.

After serving two years in a local church and then eleven years as a global worker in Ukraine, it is my privilege to lead the mobilization team of Converge International Ministries. Our team has deployed the greatest number of global workers in the history of Converge, formerly BGC - and we have many more in our pipeline. We are here to help your church raise up and send global workers into the harvest fields God has prepared in advance for your church to reach. We are developing tools to aid you in this endeavor.

If you encounter someone in your congregation who senses God may be calling them to a cross-cultural ministry role, please reach out to us. We invest in prospective candidates to produce God-honoring results through the care and support of their ministry and family. Our dedicated team provides coaching and training to help candidates discover innovative strategies that make room for their gifts and passions. Converge provides benefits such as health insurance, a retirement plan, and personal care for our global staff to keep them healthy on the field and when they return home for home assignment.

In every congregation, it has been estimated that 1-4% of the members have the spiritual gifts and the cross-cultural aptitude to become effective global workers. In other words, as Paul reminded his friends in Rome, there are some in your congregation whose beautiful feet God is calling to send.

And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” Romans 10:15

(NIV84)

The Converge International Ministries [IM]PACT Global Missions Service Internship is designed to help shape young people’s worldview to be missional in their responses to the injustice they see around them.

The 6-10 week internship allows an intern to personally encounter the challenge and adventure of global ministry. Though our primary audiences are Millennials and GenZ, we will welcome those over 18 years old with a heart for the nations.

If you are interested in rising to the challenge of being a person of influence in the life of an intern, please become an ambassador for this program. Also, if you know someone interested in missions, please have them check out our web page or apply for Summer 2024. We are now accepting applications!
