What are the responsibilities and job description for the GFA World Staff position at GFA World?
GFA World is seeking caring individuals who are committed to serving as behind-the-scenes missionaries at our US Headquarters in Wills Point, TX. Our staff members fulfil a vital role in supporting the work on the field in Asia and Africa. We hope God is calling you to this unique opportunity to put your talents to use in a Christ-focused ministry with an enormous eternal impact. Those who serve here don't see this as a job; they see this as a calling!
As a behind-the-scenes missionary, you will:
- Facilitate the involvement of the Body of Christ in ministering throughout Asia and Africa, all deeply in need of God’s powerful transformation.
- Enable more than 100 national men and women missionaries to serve hands-on in Asia.
- Be part of ministering to more than 70,000 impoverished children through GFA’s Child Sponsorship Program. Each staff member represents more than 500 children who are being helped.
Think back to the men and women God has used throughout history to do great things for His name. Behind each one, you will find dedicated individuals who labored alongside, prayed for, or financially supported their cause. God is powerfully moving through GFA-supported workers in Asia and Africa, who are ministering to some of the neediest people in the world.
“Everyone who does ministry understands the critical importance of logistical and administrative support. The less visible jobs should have no less honor and support in the church (to make reference to 1 Cor. 12). When we all do our part, the unity of the body is complete. I am happy to support those who support. It is an honor to be a servant of God’s servants.”
—Fred and Janet, from Iowa
*** Please Note ***
All full-time staff members are considered behind-the-scenes missionaries and, as such, are expected to raise financial support, which enables GFA to provide more resources for the work on the mission field. We will provide training, guidance, and coaching on how to raise financial and prayer support for your very own mission support team. There are exceptions to this policy, and those will be considered on a case-by-case basis. May the Lord give you His guidance and wisdom.
