Church Ministry - Ecuador
The Latin America region has a vision to transform lives in dynamic communities. You'll serve in your area of focus while being part of localized summer ministry experiences. You'll also be poured into by a team of missionaries as you learn more about your gifts and passions. Our hope for this experience is that you will grow in your relationship with God, expand your skill set, be more prepared to disciple people from other cultures, and perhaps discern a long-term call to missions and ministry.
This opportunity will involve ministry at a church plant in Chongón, Ecuador. You will be training local volunteers through crafts, songs, and techniques. There will also be opportunities to serve in Children's and Youth Ministry, ESL, Tutoring, Music and Teaching, and Art and Design ministries.
While in Chongón, Ecuador, you will be staying in the home of the OMS missionaries serving there. You will have a chance to work alongside them and see what daily missionary life is like. You will also have the opportunity to work alongside national workers in the church and see the transition of leadership to these workers.
During your time with Embark you will serve with One Mission Society, build relationships with youth and young adults, receive mentorship from experienced missionaries, work alongside a team of other like-minded OMS interns, expand and hone your skill set, and grow in your ministry approach to evangelism, discipleship and communicating your testimony.
