Basketball & Jesus
IMB job #:  21277
Location: Philippines
Team size: 10 guys
Field expense: $1267 plus roundtrip travel & required travel insurance


Job description: Go from village to village, playing basketball, showing the Jesus film and sharing Christ with hundreds. You will also disciple new believers. Live out of your bag, wash your clothes by hand, and sleep wherever a door is opened. Be a part of the next wave of Nehemiah Teams obeying the Great Commission. In partnership with IMB missionaries & national church planters, you will become a part of Filipino culture, make friends through sports, and make disciples in this very hard place. 
Your first stop will be a joint orientation in the US with other Nehemiah Teams. Learning the skills needed to carry out your assignment as well as team building will fill these first few days. Then your team will head overseas to your final destination. Following your ministry time you will return to the US for a joint debrief, sharing all God has done over the summer. It is expected that team members participate in the entire program from orientation through debrief
