Linguistik jobs in Germany

ECM missionaries are building up a community in Eastern Germany in a part of the city of Schwerin, with a lot of loneliness and neglect. Cooperating with a local church, we lead a small community and organise some activities. We also work together with neighbours and people who are interested in the project. Click here to read more.

We are dreaming of growing a Christian community, that people will have the chance to get to know Jesus, themselves, and others in the neighbourhood. We are dreaming of a community where people connect and discover their gifts and work with them and we are looking for missionaries to come and join us.

Short term - Having now started setting up a community centre, we are looking for short term workers to help us with the practical work alongside the relationship building ministry. Please contact us for more information.

• A living faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
• A sharing of the vision and willingness to work within it. There is plenty of room for your own creativity.
• A willingness to insert yourself into the culture of East-German people and take time to earn their trust.
• To study the language and the culture for a year between arrival in the country and starting the ministry, and to live and work in the ordinary local housing in this part of the city.
• Gifts relevant to ministry in the young church plant and needs in the neighbourhood, such as children's or youth work, social ministry, preaching, discipleship, mentoring, and music. Candidates with the gift of administration and finance are also needed.
• Flexibility, eagerness to learn and open-mindedness are important in order to live and work here. To reach out to people who are at home a lot (older people, unemployed, families) a bi‑vocational ministry is not really an option as you have to be available for the people.
