Shine the LIGHT in a dark place this summer

SociaLights

IMB job #: 21499
Location: Southeast Asia
Team size: 2 girls
Field expense: $2114 plus roundtrip travel & required travel insurance

Job description: If you are a female who likes exploring urban life, going to social events, building relationships with those you meet, and sharing Jesus with Muslims then this would be the job for you. You will be a literal sociaLight who can shine the light of Jesus in a dark place that has never heard. You and your teammate will be living in a big coastal city and will go around to different city events, either at malls, convention halls, streets food “cities”, on the boardwalk, etc. and see who you can build relationships with and share Jesus with. The city has a booming social scene, which we have not been able to connect with yet, so you would be playing a vital role in getting into this world and making some of those connections, which could lead to potential follow-up opportunities. Your team would literally be exploring the city and seeing what there is to see, get involved in, and where to meet people.
